Church Celebrates Transit of Venus
Jeremiah Horrocks was only twenty one years old when he correctly predicted the 1639 transit of Venus. Even though Horrocks knew he could become the first person in recorded history to witness a transit of Venus, he prioritized his church duties over his personal pursuit.
The parishioners of St. Michael's Church in Hoole, England, have honored Horrocks for both his religious commitment and his astronomical accomplishment.
