Transit of Venus leaflet less than 10 second question - Transit of Venus is a rare astronomical phenomenon. It has or will occur in the following years: 1631, 1639, 1761, 1769, 1874, 1882, 2004, 2012, 2117 ... When will the next one occur after 2117?
Guess: 2125
Parth is quicker. The transit happens in 8-year pairs, except for sometimes it happens in singles, but that happens only rarely, the last one I think was 1300s
After 2012, the next transits of Venus will be in December 2117 and December 2125.
