EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Navesh Chitrakar, we witness a rare celestial event as the planet Venus gracefully traverses across the face of the Sun. Taken from the enchanting city of Kathmandu on June 6,2012, this mesmerizing spectacle marks the last visible transit of Venus from Earth for an astonishing 105 years. The image showcases the delicate silhouette of Venus against the radiant backdrop of our life-giving star. As its darkened form glides across the Sun's fiery surface, it serves as a poignant reminder of our place in the vast cosmos and ignites a sense of wonder within us. This extraordinary occurrence holds great significance not only for astronomers but also for those who appreciate science, technology, and environmental wonders. The photograph encapsulates both scientific marvel and natural beauty in one frame. Chitrakar's skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this celestial dance between two celestial bodies—a fleeting moment that will be etched into history until its next appearance over a century later. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring scene unfolding above Kathmandu's skyline, we are reminded of how small yet interconnected we are with the universe. It is through such breathtaking encounters like these that our curiosity is piqued and our understanding deepened about what lies beyond our own planet Earth.
