Transit of Venus Tonight


A rare moment in the sky tonight.

It's known as the transit of Venus.

The planet will appears as a small, dark disk moving across the face of the Sun, shortly after 5 tonight.

It's recommended you not stare directly into the sun.

Voyageur National Park will be offering a safe way to view the transit of Venus at their Rainy Lake Visitor Centre.
