Mercury is the bright object near the sun right now, or are you talking about something else?

Ok, thanks. Didn't have a clue and didn't realize Mercury was that close to the sun that it would show up like that. Pretty cool though.
Yes we get several threads a year like this where people wonder what Mercury is doing near the sun. So you're not the only one.
It's not that cool though, I hear it's pretty hot!
