Fluctuations of duration of subjective minute ( DSM) at the Venus transiting across the disk of the Sun on June 8, 2004 from 9.13a.m. to 3.16p.m. Spot 2 - the moment of minimal angular distance between the centers of the Sun and the planet. Spots 1 and 3 - moments of touching the disk. We also estimated the possible influence on DSM from a rare planetary phenomenon (previously observed in 1882), connected with the Venus transiting across the disk of the Sun on June 6, 2004 (from 9.13 a.m. till 3.16 p.m.), by analyzing the registered DSM variations from 6 a.m. till 6 p.m. (See Fig. 7). We found that the DSM variations during the outer intervals (approaching the solar disk and moving away from it) and during NM (FM, SE, LE, nadir of the Sun) are similar. DSM rises dramatically (from 67 to 79 sec) about 2 hours prior to the planet starting moving across the disk. After that it drops down to the level of intervening intervals, noticeably dips with the beginning of the eclipse and keeps decreasing more intensely down to the minimum (52 sec) as the planet reaches the point equidistant to the limb of the Sun. Then DSM increases to 74-76 sec (during the time interval of the eclipse ending), which is followed with a sharp decline to 55-57 sec in the next 3 hours. Similar changes of DSM were registered during the Mercury transiting across the disk of the Sun on November 8-9, 2006 (the phenomenon previously observed in 1886). We studied the dynamics of DSM for each case: in Antarctica, at NM (FM, SE, LE), at nadirs of the Sun, at the Mercury and Venus transiting across the disk of the Sun (See Fig.8). DSM varies in the evidently similar manner: each cycle of the parameter fluctuations includes upward and downward trends to the left and to the right from the studied phenomenon, describing the “eclipse” phase. 170
