This image of the 2012 Venus Transit was
taken by NASA Astronaut Don Pettit from aboard the International Space Station
on June 5, 2012. Pettit, who had the foresight to bring a solar filter for his
camera, captured several images of the June 5 transit, downloading them in
almost real-time. He photographed the image through the European Space
Agency-built "cupola", removing the scratch panes to get crisp, clear
images.
