To all. You don’t need to buy anything expensive and exotic to see this. Go to a store where you can buy the square dark lenses that fit into a welder’s helmet. Works great for eclipses and things like this. I watched the recent eclipse with mine with no problems.

This will allow you to view the Sun with no problems but seeing Venus traverse the face will be like trying to view a grain of sand traversing the face of a light bulb at 20 feet.
