Speaking as someone who doesn't use a wheelchair, it feels a lot safer than it looks in that picture.

I wish I lived where some of these other pictures are from, though! Good gravy!

Was that taken with a telescope or something? Venus always looks like a very bright "star" on the night sky, but actually seeing the planet like that??

You can see Venus transit across the Sun on June 6th.
With something to block the light, like with any other time you would look at the Sun of course. It'll probably be the last time you can see in your lifetime.
