It’s pretty kewl. Authur C. Clarke wrote a short story about an expedition that set out to Mars to record the transit of the earth across the face of the sun (as viewed from the surface of Mars) based on an actual transit of the earth on May 2, 1984. A transit of earth is fascinating because it’s a two-fer, the moon transit at the same time. Clarke’s story was based on a calculation published by Jan Meeus.
