Speaking of which, most of us are missing our only chance during our lifetimes* to see Venus pass between the Earth and the Sun. I can never get excited about this stuff, but this is a pretty cool photo:
* Unless someone here is going to be alive in 122 years, "during our lifetimes" is redundant** but in keeping with the gloom going on around here. Insert Rule Against Perpetuities joke here.
