See the Last Venus Transit of the 21st Century

In 2004 we were treated to a sunrise view of Venus crossing the disk of the sun. On June 5th, we will enjoy a sunset Venus transit. If you miss this one, you won't get another chance to see it until 2117 - and that's a very long time to wait. This special rooftop viewing of the Venus transit begins at 6:00 pm. The transit will be visible from 6:03 until the sun sets at 8:19. Viewing is weather-dependent so call 617-495-7461 to check for cancellation. Staff parking open to the public.
