You may have noticed the news that yesterday afternoon, a transit of Mercury in front of the Sun was visible through a telescope. Pro Astronomers consider this a very significant event, as this phenomenon will only be observable thirteen times in the current century, with the next one in 2032. The average person probably won't be all that excited. It's basically a small black dot in front of the Sun. You can see the photos in the gallery on the side of the paragraph.
