How would mercury be seen at night without a telescope?
Mercury is seen as a dim star without a telescope, although what it looks like is dependent on it's orbital position and the amount of light pollution in your area. Unfortunately, Mercury's close orbit with the Sun often causes the Sun to "hide" Mercury in a glare during sunrise and sunset and when it is visible to the naked eye, which is rare, it's very low to the horizon. However, if the Sun weren't so blindingly bright, you could see Mercury transit past the Sun as a black dot moving across the Sun but this is only visible with a solar telescope or a telescope with a solar filter.
