Mercury transit

I caught this at 9:38 local time (1438 GMT) through high clouds. It doesn't look like anything better will come along, so here you go.

I don't do AP
But had a nice view through the ST80 with a zoom EP, top was at 50x

Had a few wispy clouds a few times giving it a spooky effect

Thank you Bob! Glad to see someone's having some luck

We should have about 2 inches of snow by the end of the day; and sunny for the rest of the week.... :facepalm:

Thanks again; hope you get some more!

All the best,

Bravo !
Thank you Bob.

Very nice, Bob. I'm going to have to save up some money for a radio telescope that will cut through central Illinois' almost constant haze and cloud layer. I think I'll have enough money after about 2,493 years - excluding inflation or change in currency.
