Absolutly Stunning Video of Venus Transitting The Sun...

A big H/T to CW at Dailytimewater ,which is a daily stop for me, for posting this:

While you are watching the video keep in mind that Venus is  67,108,088 million miles from the sun


and Earth is 92,955,887.6 miles. Look at how volatile the sun is.......

    Beautiful, but I think NASA played some CG games with this. The disk that is supposed to be Venus is slightly transparent, allowing the edge of the sun to be seen faintly _through_ the disk as it passes. No way that could really occur. The few shots of a darkened disk passing over the plain, flat-surfaced yellow sun showed on opaque Venus, but not the other views.
