Hey, yours too. Thanks for your service. Now, about that rhubarb. Only if it’s blended in some sort of adult beverage of which I partook several thereof ....

Well as I wrote to several posters:
Yep, 'bout the same size. Got my facts a bit off so I guess I'll go stand in the corner for a while.

Now that I think about it I’m thinking camera movement - probably photographer was on a boat that was moving up and down - the circles seem on top of each other.

Here's one where the Transit and solar eclipse occurred at the same time!

The big uns are Jupiter (natch), Saturn, and of course Uranus (couldn’t resist that one, could I?).

It’s pronounced “U-Ranus” not “Ur-anus” or U-rinus” as PBS TV was saying so they wouldn’t mis-prounce the “anus” word accidentally.
