Details:
Mercury was captured June 18, 2022 at 14:36 UT (about 65 degrees above the horizon). It shows a fat crescent 41% illumination and a bright patch lower left of the disk is Lugus Planitia. Also, it matches very well with the WinJUPOS simulator taken by the MESSENGER spacecraft. Don't forget to catch Mercury within the next few weeks in the morning sky!
