The planet Venus will pass between the earth and sun on Tuesday, a rare “transit” that will be easily visible from Northern California.

Sky-gazers using special solar viewing glasses will be able to see Venus as a black disk passing across the sun over a period of more than six hours.

“From an astronomical standpoint, it doesn't happen very often,” said Ed Megill, director of the Santa Rosa Junior College Planetarium.

“These transits happen in pairs 105 years apart.”

The event will be far less dramatic than the annular solar eclipse that occurred May 13, which noticeably darkened the sky.

And it will be preceded Monday by a partial lunar eclipse, in which a third of the moon will fall within the earth's shadow at 4 a.m.,

coloring that third of the moon with a reddish-brown color.

However, the transit of Venus holds a special place in astronomy because it is steeped in historical importance.

“During the transit of Venus of 1857, with the observations made at various places around the world and basic trigonometry,

 the basic distance to the sun from the earth was established,” said Lynn Anderson, president of the Sonoma County Astronomical Society.

Venus is the second planet from the sun and about the size of earth. As the brightest body in the night sky aside from the moon,

 it is often referred to as the Morning Star and the Evening Star.

Transits of Venus occur in pairs that are separated by more than a century.

A transit occurred in June 2004, but it was only visible on the other side of the earth. For this transit, Northern California will have a ringside seat.

The next transit will not occur until December 2117 and December 2125.

The transit on Tuesday will begin at about 3:15 p.m. and continue until about 9:30 p.m., which is an hour after the sun is to set in Sonoma County.

Because Venus is so small in relationship to the sun, there will be public viewing programs set up using binoculars and telescopes fitted with the proper dark filters.

As will all solar observations, people are warned to use the correct solar viewing glasses or extremely dark welding glass.

“The best way is through a telescope,” said George Loyer, president of the Ferguson Observatory at Sugarloaf State Park.

“The disk of Venus is so small it is a challenge to see without some magnification.”

The observatory will be open from 1 p.m. to when the sun drops behind the mountains west of the observatory, about 6:30 p.m.

The observatory also will have solar viewing glasses for sale.

At the SRJC Planetarium, telescopes and a projection viewing device will be set up in the parking lot to the west of the building, Megill said.

It will open at 3 p.m. and close about 8:30 p.m., when the sun sets.

Piner High School teacher Kurt Kruger will have telescopes set up in the playing field next to the student parking lot between 3 and 8 p.m.

The Exploratorium in San Francisco will also have a live broadcast of the transit on its Internet site, www.exploratorium.edu,

from the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii.

(과천=연합뉴스) 유용석 기자 = 6일 오전 8시 50분경 금성이 태양을 통과하며 일부분을 가리는 금성일식이 경기도 과천 국립과학관에서 관측되고 있다. 다음 금성일식은 105년 후에나 볼 수 있다. 2012.6.6
태양에 잇는 가만점이 금성이네요 ㅎㅎㅎ
