Hello all,

 

in November this year there will happen a mercury transit.

When I was going to test via Guide9/Animation dialog if I would have a chance to visit this celestial event then I experienced an unexpected behavior of Guide9:

In a lower display level than 10 mercury (displayed as +Mercury) proceeds behind the sun instead of traveling in front of it. After choosing level 10 or higher mercury is displayed as a planet and now is traveling in the right manner in front of the sun.

 

This is no great affair albeit somewhat confusing. Do others see this behavior too?

 

Regards,

Rolf Stadelmaier
