It has in fact been updated:

stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

It is clearly Mercury.

Looks like Mercury to me, too, but will also await an expert analysis.

This appears to be Mercury to me as well. I went to your second link and decided to plug in 12/12/21 11:18am to see if there was any planetary alignment as many have claimed would happen. The only alignment I saw was with the Earth,Venus and Jupiter. Thought you would find that interesting.

There is clearly something else visible in this image. Just an artifact of some sort?

We're safe, just Mercury. Now all we have to worry about is our fearless leaders and they would never do anything to hurt us.

is it me or did nasa remove the images stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov... now it is realy interesting.

Humpffff.... I smell a conspiracy!

What is going on?

Wheres my hat?

The site has been having problems for a few days.
It's up! Yea!
It's down! Boo!

Before I post this, I want to say that I really don't think Niburu exists, but I don't count it out.

According to most theories in regards to the orbit and inclination if Niburu exists then it would be making it's pass behind and just under the sun this year.

Good news is, if it is Niburu and it does in fact exist we will be able to see it soon (from a very southern location till 2010).

All giant planet wreaking havoc on earth theories aside. I don't think it is mercury, it's too big. I would guess since mars is behind the sun right now and coming around. It's most likely our sister red planet.

P.S. CaptianGizmo..... BOOM HEAD SHOT!

Niribu is not of this era, 'Planet X' what an incredible load of Lama dung.

SOHO/STEREO sketchiness ...

NASA scientists lost access to DoD sats..

Possible cyber attacks..

NASA inflating sunspot count..

Mars probe reboot due to cosmic ray buildup..

i really dont see anything

im sure thats mercury

i dont see anything abnormal

Been waiting and waiting to post to see exactly where this object is going. The initial images from yesterday made it appear that it was bee-lining for the sun. The most recent images, when viewed in succession, show that it still is moving towards the sun, but the object appears to be dimming, which would mean that it may be, from our viewpoint, heading towards the sun, but it is also moving farther away from our viewpoint in terms of distance, lending more credibility to the explanation that this is a planet. Probably Mercury.

Still gonna watch for the next few days out of curiosity.

OP.... looks like a planet to me but on the other hand it could always be 'Rama' refuelling.....

One funny little fact, I checked our calender for Dec. 2012 and get this, not 1, not 2, but 3 Friday the 13ths, kinda funny heh. As for the "red" planet, according to Joseph Skipper at marsanomalyresearch.com, mars isn't really red at all...may or may not be true, but interesting either way.

I don't see anything that looks out of the ordinary either ?

What are you guys looking at exactly , is there something I'm missing ?

I see the sun , a planet in front of it , a white circle added to the black dot ... is that what others are seeing

Here is a video I found on it !!
