I love astronomical events like eclipses and transits. Here's some shots of the transit of Venus I got from 2012 (complete with sunspots): I enjoy imagining our place in a galactic community within which we have unique sets of events that are a part of "Earth culture". Perhaps in the future, alien races will bolster "Earth tourism"? Probably not... space-time has a LOT of space, and not enough time (at least for the experience of a single human).
