Probably first people on Tahiti were Polynesian voyagers who came from west Pacific from Samoa or Tonga and, before, even far way from Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Taiwan and neighborings, originated in Southeast Asia. Great navigators, they knew the stars and winds and ocean currents, with their doubled- hulled canoes(waka, wa´a...in their languages) they arrived as far as Hawai´i in north Pacific, Eastern Island (east) and Aoatearoa (New Zealand) in south Pacific, the Polynesian Triangle. Scientists researches find similarities among these people (DNA, languages, animals, vegetals and trees they brought on their ships, myths, religion and so on...). Aroha..Aloha.....

James Cook did not actually watch an eclipse of the sun. He was sent to observe the transit of Venus across the sun from the vantage point of Tahiti. The transit of Venus occurs when the planet Venus passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, and its unlit side can be seen as a small black circle moving across the face of the Sun. Transits of Venus occur in pairs, eight years apart, approximately once every 120 years. Cook's ship, the 'Endeavour', departed England, on 25 August 1768. Cook reached Tahiti in time for his crew and scientists to set up their instrumentation necessary to observe and report on the transit, which occurred on 3 June 1769.
