transit of Venus

FYI, I’ve just added a live stream of the transit of Venus temporarily onto the front page of Bird-O. This is your last chance to see this for another 105 years ; )

The sun is out in Melbourne and the first rays are hitting the garden. Could be a good time to head out and take a look. http://bird-o.com/

Regards,

Simon.

    Good warning, Peter. I’m sure some won’t realise just how dangerous this is. Denise

    Good point Peter, don’t look at the sun directly! As far as I’m concerned looking at the live feed is more interesting than a tiny image on a piece of paper anyway!

    Cheers, Chris

    I assume all ba subscribers already know that you need to project it onto something via binoculars or scope or pinhole, etc, rather than view it with the naked eye in order not to be blinded?
