Summary of Venus Transit in the Evening Sky
The article discusses the capabilities of astronomers to observe Venus during its transit in the evening sky, highlighting several key points:
-
Venus Transit Sequence (Andromeda)
While Venus transits through the evening sky, only Jupiter and Mars remain as naked-eye planets among the planetary parade. These two outer planets, known as superior planets, are said to loop around the sun every 11 or so years. -
Phase progression and transit dates
Recent observations show Venus in a crescent phase with Mercury post-transit, suggesting a temporary emotional connection between the two inner planets. The phases of Venus beyond the first day of appearance are noted, with Venus rising relatively early, but Mercury rising next. -
astronomical events and transit correlation
The alignment of Jupiter (in Taurus) and Mars (in Gemini) with Cass preset on Gemini aligns in their orbit. The next transit in the evening sky is set for August 29, 2025. -
Venus transit observation significance
The rare event of a transit in the evening sky is of great scientific significance. Such transits provide a chance to observe the planet and its internal structure while interacting with the sun. - Historical context of inner planets
The alignment of inner planets like Venus with the sun has historically been a subject of interest, overshadowing their outer companions. This brief moment wasted in the sun’s glare has now been added to observations.

Interview with Leonardo da Vinci
$500 million was invested in the creation of Leonardo da Vinci’s Star Exposition, a project dedicated to preserving and showcasing his initial experiments with painting. Its grand celebration began with the first private exhibition in 1987 and culminated in the Star Exposition, where the art of painting was explored through exclusive private collections, guest shows, and uninterpreted art.
