Because, you have NO IDEA what you are looking at.
Took some doing, since I really didn't know Jack Snot about the STEREO, nor the SOHO nor the GOES before a few days ago...so. I am learning on the
fly, here. It is really easy, actually, using the InterWebz...lots of info out there.
SO, I found a site where that IMAGE you keep going on about can be found...along with a whole bunch of others, in context. Let's learn together,
shall we?:
stereo-ssc.nascom.nasa.gov...

(edit)
Ahhhh...checked my link, went to their default search menu...so you will have to do what I did. SEARCH from there. Use the "date range" boxes (just
put the date in YYYY-MM-DD format, 20101015 (no dashes!!), in the "Start Date" box, you can leave the box on right empty).
Click on "Ahead H1"
THEN, you will see the list of images I talk about, below....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There....now, it's big, may take some time to load.
Scroll down about half way, or so. I found all of this, just by searching "STEREO ahead image" (because the word "ahead" is on the image you posted.
Also, there are several categories...this is from the group called "H1". Still need to learn what all the designations mean, of course. Give me
time..)
This gives you images from the same date ..... Just as
VonHickup's is, in his "video", same date....(and, WHY, again, does ANYONE ever
bother to listen to that fool??? Sad, isn't it, that he is spreading his DNA.....) :shk:

The images, on that site, include captions to describe them.
HERE is the caption for that particular image:
Image of the solar corona, taken by the SECCHI inner Heliospheric Imager (HI-1)
on the STEREO Ahead observatory on October 15, 2010 at 10:34:01 UT.
(Now we know what "H-1" stands for...)
It is the CORONA....the "thing" as you pointed out, in the center? It is there to BLOCK THE DISC OF THE SUN. To make the corona more visible. Get
it now?
