This app will be of great help in your observation of the transit of Venus (ToV) on June 5 and 6, 2012, when the planet Venus is seen in front of the Sun for the very last time this century.

Before the transit, you can find out what part of the transit will be visible from your location, and at what time the transit will start and end.
