Mercury on the Horizon

COSMIC MESSAGE

Mercury orbits close to the Sun, so it's always seen low on the horizon, either shortly after sunset or before sunrise. This image combines many shots taken over several months, showing Mercury at various points along the horizon. It takes patience and a clear view to spot it.
