In case, like me, you’re in an area where the sun isn’t out for Venus’ transit in front of the sun (or you just don’t want to go blind trying to find the dot), there’s live video (with play-by-play) at http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/venus_transit/index.html.

The announcers are really hoping to see a solar flare surround Venus (they all agreed that they will cry if they get to see it).

Hey, don’t mock them for it. I get the same way over Disney stuff.
