    The first 8-second clip was provided by NASA. From that clip, I edited the rest.
    NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), a satellite launched in 2010 to observe the Sun, recorded this transit 11/11/19 from 7:00am to 1:38pm ET. It is a time-lapse covering nearly 7 hours, recorded through the SDO's Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) and a 171 angstrom filter.
    Special thanks for the original clip to NASA's Scientific Visualization Studio:

    Mercury is the first planet from the Sun and the smallest in the Solar System. Its next transit will be November 13, 2032.
