That little dot in the top right-hand corner of the sun is the planet Mercury. It crossed in front of the sun on Veterans Day 2019. Seeing this put the universe into perspective. Earth is about 3 times the size of that dot. Perhaps, we should all get along better on our little rock, so we have fewer veterans to mourn in the future.
