What: Venus will pass in front of the sun and you will be able to see it this time! Be sure you have the proper safety equipment. The Amateur Astronomer Association is setting up shop with solar viewing telescopes, pinhole cameras, and projection equipment at Riverside Park South and the High Line. The event is free, and afterwards there will be a "public starparty" to see the Moon, Mars, and Saturn.
When: Tuesday June 5, 2012 @Sunset
Where: Anywhere with a clear Western view or meet with others at The Highline or Riverside Park (near 70th Street and walk to the waterfront out onto the pier.)
