Thanks, I didn't realize that they included an annotated version.

It looks like the 22° and 46° halos are the only ones there. Why is there some distinction made for the circumscribed halo and infralateral arc?

When I first go to APOD, the image is 90° off so it looks like Mercury's orbit is on a vertical plane. It's the correct horizontal plane when I click on the image, though.
