N2 - Some people are perplexed by the ‘Mercury diagrams’ of Joachim Schultz1.
 These denote the motion of Mercury over the course of a year, as seen
 from Earth, with respect to an immobile Sun at the centre. They use the
 astronomical co-ordinates called Right Ascension and Declination, which
 means that it is motion with respect to the Equator-plane of the Earth. So
 these diagrams show Mercury’s apparent motion with respect to the Earth’s
 equatorial plane. [...]
