What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by Nobody:
I took a picture of the sun this afternoon, had no sunshade on so unable to look at the sun while taking the picture but I can observe a body beside the sun which I have no idea what it is.

Allow the sun to be, go and enjoy your sunday

This is what I’m referring to and I don’t think a glare defines that.

Looks like another planet in revolution.
Not sure about this o.
Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by dandaddy(m): 9:04pm On Mar 04, 2018
Perhaps that's another planet or anybody of the space...
Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by terrezo2002(m): 9:20pm On Mar 04, 2018
Maybe it is mercury or some heavenly body.

you must delete this post before the next 3 market days, otherwise the gods will be offended tongue
Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by gbadexy(m): 9:49pm On Mar 04, 2018
very good observation. someone is already telling the op to just enjoy his sunday and leave the sun, how would we as a continent develop with this simple minded mentality.
I hope this gets more views so that we can get more explanations.
Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by Bahddo(m): 9:53pm On Mar 04, 2018
It's your camera. Snap very bright artificial light at close zoom, and you'd have similar results.
Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by OneCorner: 10:44pm On Mar 04, 2018

Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by ikbnice(m): 10:58pm On Mar 04, 2018
It's more likely one of the planets observable from earth

Not sure about this o.
Very possible.
Probably Mercury which is about 57.9 million kilometers from the Sun (Earth is about 149.6 million kilometers and the 3rd planet from the Sun).

Occasionally, Mercury which is a relatively small planet with a radius of 2,440km (Earth's radius - 6,371km) may move closer to the Sun (as close as 43 million kilometers) within its elliptical orbit.

The orbital period of Mercury is approximately 88 days, while that of Earth is 365 days.
So OP, it may be possible to see such occurrence multiple times in a year.

I doubt that could be a UFO because of the intense heat at that distance from the Sun and it's estimated size; the UFO would be as large as a planet!

Re: What Is This Body Beside The Sun Called by Nobody: 8:33am On Mar 05, 2018

It's the lens apparently, you can see the thing move in position when the op took the last pic....

op go to a science community forum and post it for them to analyse it for you.

Nigerians wey never chop belleful are not interested in such things.
perusing the comments here shows the depth of shallow minds trolling our cyberspace

Thats a blue dwarf star. That stuff you saw there might be a million light years away. In human years, thats about 500 billion years.
