Latest Comment (June 8, 05:17 UT) : The transit is beginning in a few minutes. We hope to see the first images with the Venus taking a "bite" of the Sun very soon. It is obvious that there are rather few sunspots at this moment, so images during the next hours in white light will show Venus' black disc on a quite uniform background. More images soon to come...
