Did you miss seeing the passage of Mercury over the face of the Sun earlier this week?

Beautiful images from the Solar observatories like the screenshot below.

See the footage at :

or from different cameras at the main site:

@Karthikdeva Thanks, Karthik - I chose that specific frame as it shows the real small size of the planet as compared to the Sun behind it.

Poor Mercury must he a living Hell of heat and radiation, being so close.
