a page from the Theodore Lunar Observatory
The planet
Mercury was in transit across the Sun a few hours before sunset and
was seen from the
Theodore Lunar Observatory located in the Australian
Capital Territory.
This is what the transit looked like, as recorded by handycam from my
site, the times are local Australian Eastern Standard Time
(AEST).
