#MercuryTransit

Q: What did Mercury say when it was asked to line up between Earth & the Sun? A: I'll pass! We witnessed a rare treat during today's #MercuryTransit, which only happens ~13 times a century!

2 years ago today I took these photos of the #MercuryTransit pic.twitter.com/CRXo35c434

My photo of the #MercuryTransit from this morning. Mercury is the *tiny* speck in the center of the disc of the Sun. For planet size comparison the second image is of the transit of Venus in 2012 (there were many sunspots at that time). pic.twitter.com/faNYZAHUso

A #MercuryTransit during the day and a full Moon at night! As winter sets in, this full Moon is called the Beaver or Frost Moon Technically, the Moon will be opposite the Sun at 13:34 UTC on November 12th, but it appears full tonight & tomorrow night. https://go.nasa.gov/34WYV21 pic.twitter.com/kdGP71W9Df

My best images of the #MercuryTransit were right near the beginning, before changing cloud conditions threw off my exposure. pic.twitter.com/fv341NYt0q

This was the first time I'd seen a #MercuryTransit and it was wonderful. Approaching 3rd contact, mercury is travelling up and to the right in this image. Tech details below. #astrophotography #photographypic.twitter.com/OBe33Pf5MC

Mercury nearing the end of its rare transit directly between Earth and the sun this morning. What a sight to behold. #MercuryTransit #mercurytransit2019pic.twitter.com/AhF05CHi1q

Double transit! I managed to capture a plane (the big fuzzy mark at the top) and Mercury (the tiny dot left of centre), both crossing the face of the sun. Single, handheld, afocal compact camera plus telescope photo. 11.11.19, Bedford, UK. #mercurytransit #mercurytransit2019pic.twitter.com/qrQRA3Rp7U

This morning's transit of Mercury in front of the Sun! Big thanks to my Uncle Graem for setting up his scope in frigid temps so we could watch this rare event. #yyc #MercuryTransit pic.twitter.com/bJAKgtc8oc
