Transit of Venus

On Tuesday June 5th, the planet Venus will transit the Sun. This event will not occur again until 2117. Come out to Raven Rock at 5 pm and learn what this event is, why it is important, and construct a viewer so we can safely observe the actual event (weather permitting). Please bring an old shoe box to convert into a sun viewer. If you have a #14 or darker welding mask you may bring it along for making observations. Contact Ranger Terry with any questions 910-893-4888.
