Mercury rising

It was worth a half-five climb out of bed this morning to catch a glimpse of tiny Mercury hanging in the pre-dawn eastern sky. To the south the Moon was in Taurus, close to the bright star Aldebaran, while the ISS passed through Orion. Some great lunar features visible, including the long, sinuous Altai Scarp that links the craters Piccolomini and Catherina.
