Venus Transit
Today is historical in that it is the first time in over 100 years that there is a transit of Venus across the face of the sun. This happens in 2004 and 2012 and then won't happen again until 2117.
Here are some good links to view this on and also to see archived footage (hopefully) as well as detailed explanations etc.
Transit Headquarters
Exploratorium
The Institute for Solar Physics
European Southern Observatory
I have downloaded videos of the event if any body wants them. Just ask me in the comments.
