The star is so huge. We are nothing. Ants. Pay your bills. Very important in the grand scheme of things lol

This is a question that relates to predicting these transits. Does Venus's inclined orbit precess or change as the planet orbits the sun (like the moon's) or does it remain relatively the same? In different words, does it take Venus the same time to complete one orbit as to cross Earth's orbital plane (a draconic month)?
-
A lovely thing to see, remembering Halley, whose life did not include it, but who told us how to use it on the 1761 transit.
We particularly see here the accuracy with which you can note the time of start & end, an error of maybe 5 seconds in 6 hours or so. His crucial point.

Mikhaylo Lomonosov ( Russian polymath, scientist ) was the first person to hypothesize the existence of an atmosphere on Venus based on his observation of the transit of Venus of 1761 in a small observatory near his house in Petersburg.

the person that actually saw that with thier own eyes is lucky because that happens only every 243 years..... but there are 2 pairs of transits....the first pair was in 2004 and the second pair will be in 2012 i cant wait to see it....its going to be visible in North America!
after 2012 the next time we will see venus' transit will be in 2117

How Long Did It Take To Cross The Sun!?

@ElParcero7 From my location, the transit what about half over by the time the sun rose. From that point I think it took about an hour and a half to clear the other side.

In theroy, possibly, but naked-eye and sun are two terms that should NEVER be put together. Looking at the sun naked eye is literally DEADLY to your eyes. All telescopes use special filters for sun viewing.
