Video This is a slow gif animation based on images recorded by a satellite. The false color were made in ultraviolet light and tend to show the hot gas just above the Sun’s visible surface. Mercury’s disk is silhouetted against the seething plasma as it follows a trajectory near the edge of the Sun. It is a transit of Mercury that occurred in Nov. 15’1999 when the planet crossed the face of the Sun. The next Mercury transit will occur in If you want to enjoy a mercurial transit, you just require an appropriately filtered telescope. Gif source: Nemiroff, Robert & Bonnell, Jerry.

Risk Analysis Talking about temperature, on the surface of planet Mercury, we can feel from 467 degrees Celsius (872 degrees Fahrenheit) up to a bone-chilling -183 degrees Celsius (-300 degrees Fahrenheit). We have to be prepared for it! Image source: Nemiroff, Robert & Bonnell, Jerry. "Astronomy Picture of the Day." Laboratory for High Energy Astrophysics (10 Oct. 2002).
