Good job to those of you who have figured out what it actually is... Disclosure; I hope your butt gets banned soon.....your threads have been debunked and not just by people saying nope your wrong but by people who go into detail as to why you are wrong, yet you refuse to see it and still continue to spew these claims....that to me is a hoaxer. What is even more sad is the uneducated people who go along with you...someone who does not seem to know nothing about astronomy, compared to those who seem well knowledgeable about it and they believe you. This thread should have been closed many pages ago as explained. You people ask why do skeptics come to a thread that they know is wrong...it is because they are here to deny ignorance and not to let it flourish.
I say those that know what it is should leave this thread to the tin foil hat wearers and let them continue thier insane beliefs. This site is supposed to be about deny ignorance...but ignorance is rampant in this thread. Let them have thier fictional scenarios. You who have tried valiantly to tell them the truth but are being ignored by these unedecated buffoons. Save your breath...let thier imaginations run wild....come back in a week and see how a thread without a healthy dose of skeptism goes. In that weeks time....i can just imagine what thier tiny brains will come up with.
PS
Is there not a mod in here. This thread should have been closed as explained. You had many valid explainations as to what it actually is compared to the OP's wild claims...and his evidence is crap compared to the others well thought out explainations and evidence.
GET BETTER MODS IF YOU ARE IGNORING THESE EXPLAINATIONS.

Of course, and while your doing that please do me a favor and make sure you stare at it for atleast 30 or so seconds.
Wheres your evidence that it isn't Venus? Instead of just saying its not, please back it up?

I know you're asking the OP, but out of my own curiosity, I've emailed
the guys at sungrazer. If I get an answer, I'll post it.
Good thinking Let us know what they come back with.
Yours is the second email like this I've received this morning -- I suspect you both browse the same forum. So my answer to you is the same as to him: it's definitely Venus.
There are a few ways to tell. FIrst, you can look at the "where is STEREO?" page: stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov... Here you can see that as the "A" spacecraft looks at the Sun, it's sees Venus right behind it. Second place to look is here: stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov... Here, the SSC (STEREO Science Center) folks mark all of the planets visible in the images. If you want to get more fancy, then you can take planetarium software and change your observer location to that of the STEREO spacecraft, and then look at the Sun. Third, you can use the STEREO orbit tool: secchi.nrl.navy.mil...
I think that some of the confusion might be partially due to the planet transit page that I maintain on the Sungrazer website. This page only lists transits for SOHO/LASCO C3. The STEREO mission is a completely different mission in two completely different parts of the solar system, so they are not going to be seeing the same transits at the same time. However, I can see that at a glance some folks might think the page it is relevant to STEREO, too (which it isn't). So I have preemptively added a paragraph to it explaining that it's for LASCO C3 only -- not STEREO. (sungrazer.nrl.navy.mil.../transits)

and no its not a sundog.
