My physics teacher was a hobbyist astronomer, on the morning of my birthday I got to watch mercy sun transit through his telescope.

Edit: Wikipedia link describing what I saw in the telescope: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transit_of_Mercury

If you had something else in mind please get your head out of the gutter.
