Transit of Venus

[Charley101]

Is anyone going to watch this? I'm getting really early tomorrow morning to watch it

[Van Diemen]

I would be excited for it if I still lived in a part of the world where it isn't permanently cloudy lol

[Charley101]

Hmm, hopefully it will be okay tomorrow morning. I like astronomy hence why i'm interested in it Also, the fact it only happens every 105 years is making me get out of bed so early in the morning

Not very interesting to most people lol

OMG THAT SOUNDS AMAZING! Me and the OH love all that stuff we sat up all night lying in the grass in the garden once watching a meteor shower was amazing ...what time is this at!!!? we would both love to see that! xxx

Ooooooooohh our physics teacher taught us how to make something out of a cereal box to look at it safely. As much as i'd like to watch it, i don't think even a fire alarm would wake me up at that time in the morning ><

I'd love to see this but it's really cloudy tonight! Also, I think it's 4.30am I might see it at? I have a long day of rehearsals for a musical tomorrow so that's just too late

It says 5.30 for London.....so will that be earlier for Scotland? I must sound so thick i cant even work out what way the sun comes up lol!
