captured a frame or two of the transit of Mercury across the face of the sun. Not very dramatic but neat to put ones own eyes on a rare celestial event

could have gotten better, but I was at work and had to rush it focus is soooo touchy on that scope and hard to tell looking at a screen in daylight blasting on ya etc...but still cool.

heh. yes I could clearly see the sun dip .00000006% in brightness as well as the .001 angstrom blue shift in the spectrum due to mercury's pull on the sun o.o

but it's still neat
