Transit of Venus June 2012

David Hough and I traveled some 600km to centre of New South Wales to avoid the cloud and rain, we viewed the entire transit from start to finish under beautiful clear blue skies.

Here is a time lapse of the entire transit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqVgAc0v8EE&feature=youtu.be
