AndhraNews.Net - Solar Filters to watch Venus transit

June 8, 2004 is a historic day, on which after a gap of 122 Years, Planet Venus will be passing through the Sun known as VENUS TRANSIT. India is one of the few countries in the world where the TOTAL TRANSIT is visible from 10:45 am to 4:51 pm. The earlier Venus Transit took place in the year 1882 ( 122 Years ago ), that means no living person on Planet Earth has witnessed such a rare Celestial Event. The next transit is after 8 Years i.e. on June 6, 2012 which will be a PARTIAL TRANSIT, and the opportunity to witness TOTAL TRANSIT will be only after 105 Years.

VENUS TRANSIT should not be watched with naked eyes, unsafe and unscientific methods like X-Ray , Negative Films, Smoked Glass etc., which is very dangerous and harmful to eyes, as unlike SOLAR ECLIPSE, during VENUS TRANSIT a tiny black spot of PLANET VENUS will be passing through the Sun, and it will be a normal sunny day. Hence the harmful ultra-violet and infra-red rays of the Sun, will cause severe damage to eyes. One should not attempt to watch VENUS TRANSIT with Binoculars or Telescopes, for which the intensity of damage to the eye will be very severe. However one should not miss, such a RARE ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY, and one can watch VENUS TRANSIT either with SCIENTIFIC SOLAR FILTERS, or apply indirect viewing technics like Pinhole camera projection..

DIRECT VIEWING of VENUS TRANSIT is possible only with SAFE AND SCIENTIFIC SOLAR FILTERS, without which one cannot watch VENUS TRANSIT. SUNVIEW � Goggles with Solar Filters are the safe and scientific SOLAR FILTERS through which one can comfortably watch the TOTAL VENUS TRANSIT without any strain to eyes.
