SDO (NASA's Solar Imager)


The video above is from SDO, a solar imager, designed by NASA. I have a hard time believing this one. Supposedly this is Mercury crossing the sun. What strikes me as standing out is the sheer amount of differences in the clips. Not only this, it seems like some kind of digital re-creation, with Mercury flying only inches from the planet's 3D surface.

At 1:31 I like to crack up. Looks like an epic scene from sci-fi.
