Is there milage (or perhaps Astronomical Unitage?) in mentioning that an Instagram-esque 'filter' adds, or otherwise overwrites, a set of pixels whilst an optical filter ''subtracts'' a proportion of the photons? [[Special:Contributions/162.158.159.58|162.158.159.58]] 14:24, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

The transcript is wrong about there being no details visible in the image. A small black dot is visible on the upper-right side which is presumably Mercury. 162.158.159.58 09:04, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
