No it's not a planet are you serious?
It wouldn't give off light like that. It's not reflecting light it's actually illuminating it's own.

Somebody did get a video of the Stereo B images in that timeframe.
Manhater posted it at the top of page 1.
If you watch OP's Video the object orbits the sun within days. It's very fast. Mercury wouldn't clear nearly the whole back side or even an orbit half way around the sun within days.

A applaud those trying to explain this objectively but do understand, you can only lead a horse to water. Some here want to see something else and that is what they will see; no matter the amount of evidence that points otherwise, i.e, Mercury.
Don't take this as a knock to those who don't see it as such, but the evidence is pointing in that direction that it is indeed Mercury.

There you go.
The object behind the sun from the beginning of the video is supposed to be Venus. Which I think it's traveling too fast to be.
Now towards the middle of the video. That object is supposed to be Mercury.

ATS, Already Taken Sides.
This seems to be the general consensus with topics I see lately.
