See Mercury’s giant, comet-like tail in stunning new image as it passes close to the sun

Mercury has been noticed cosplaying as a comet over the previous couple of days when the solar’s neighboring planet reached its nearest level to our star, exposing its large, streaking tail within the evening sky. One astrophotographer captured a really epic shot of the charade. 

Comets are orbiting chunks of frozen rocks, gases and mud which can be virtually all the time seen with distinctive twin tails trailing behind them — one made from fuel that leaks from their interiors and one other created by mud from their surfaces. These two tails are blown away from the comet in the identical course by charged particles from the solar often called photo voltaic wind.
