I am leaving work early today to try and capture the transit. Here in the southeastern US, we can only see a couple of hours worth at the beginning (first contact). Of course it's raining and cloudy ATM... Any ARP'ers going to observe/photo? Do NOT look at the sun without special filters.
The lunar eclipse was a no-show over here because it was really cloudy. Hopefully, this isn't the case tomorrow cause we will have to wait until December 2117 to see the next Venus Transit!
I saw that just now in my workplace. The students placed telescopes with filters. That visible small black circle is indeed, Venus.
