[FPSPACE] One year ago today - the Venus Transit of 2004

[LARRY KLAES]

I will never forget my first sight of that large black dot on the round red 
ball of the Sun as I kept glancing in my van's rearview mirror that morning 
wondering when it would be visible over the horizon as I drove to my planned 
viewing location.

Only seven years and eleven months until the next one.
