Star Occultation

Here is an example of a recent event which had limited visibility: delta Ophiuchi.

More dramatic cases are usually solar eclipses or either of Mecury or Venus in a solar transit (a rare Venus transit is coming.)

Remote viewing from a clear dark sky site with "good seeing" at the time of the event is an opportunity for internet-based observations and measurements.
