The 2012 Transit of Venus. Venus Will Pass Across The Face Of The Sun. Very rare !!!
On June 5th, 2012, Venus will pass across the face of the sun
producing a silhouette that no one alive today will likely see again.
Transits of Venus are very rare, coming in pairs separated by
more than a hundred years. This June's transit, the bookend
of a 2004-2012 pair, won't be repeated until the year 2117.
Fortunately, the event is widely visible.
Observers on seven continents, even a sliver of Antarctica
will be in position to see it.

When I saw this shot of the beautiful round Goddess Venus from a 1984 passing across the sun, it reminded me of this beautiful Goddess and her beauty mark.

Oh yeah, sure, that's Venus.
Didn't anybody here see Lifeforce??? Like, if aliens were gonna invade Earth they'd do something so stupid-obvious as come here in a spaceship?!?! Like in some ridiculous I'm-just-a-cute-homesick-alien-who-only-wants-to-make-friends movie by Steven Spielberg???
Yeah, right.
Face it, we're all doomed. Forget the Mayan Calendar bullshit, the invisible asteroids. This is an actual, entire alien planet coming here to destroy us. We've got 24, maybe 48 hours tops, before they start converting all of us to carbon-based smoothies or, for the particularly unlucky, tiny vampire-coprophages.
Of course, Mathilda May can drain the, um, lifeforce out of me anytime...

OMG! I zoomed in on "Venus" and look what I found. Commercialism is out of this world! 
GyRaBe... that Mathilda May has such a large space from her lips (the ones below her nose) to her breasts that I believe I might run out of spit by the time I got to the first nipple.

Venus has, I believe, always been referred to as Earth's sister planet (possibly almost a twin), given the similar size & mass of the two bodies. So while looking at Aqua2213's picture of Venus highlighted against the Sun's surface, consider how massive the Sun is compared with our home.
And this similarity of planetary dimensions has proved compelling to generations of astronomers and anyone else who considered that here we are on a rich. verdant planet riotous with life and there's sits Venus, fatally locked in an impenetrably-clouded, CO2-rich atmosphere that long ago smothered any life, a sobering thought for any concerned about the effects we humans (and those millions of farting cows & bulls) are having on this planet's atmosphere.
Geez, what's that smell?
