There's a little black spot on the sun today...
On June 8, Venus will pass in front of the Sun as seen from Earth. It might not sound like much, but the last time this happened was in 1882. In fact, Venus transits the Sun only 13 or 14 times every 1,000 years. It does, however tend to do it in pairs, separated by a period of 8 years. This transit of the sun by Venus will be repeated in 2012.
