Venus Transit

So on Tuesday, June 5, 2012, our Astronomy class took a trip to the Boyertown Planetarium to the Venus Transit.  Unfortunately for us, along with everyone else that excitedly waited to see this event, we did not get to see it.  Due to the fact that it was mostly cloudy and overcast all day, we did not get the chance to see this irregular event.  I did happen to take some pictures of the process of trying to capture this rare event.  Below, there are pictures of Dr. Detterline setting up his telescope, us waiting for the sky to clear up, and the sky on our trip back to Kutztown.
