Mercury is the planet orbiting closest to the sun and
it is the smallest classical planet in our Solar System.
it is the smallest classical planet in our Solar System.
It has virtually no atmosphere so the climate is extremely harsh;
the temperature varies by 600 Kelvins from day to night.
Mercury is geologically dead, therefore, its surface is quite cratered.
Mercury has a 3 to 2 orbit, meaning that Mercury has 2 days in each 3 year period,
making it the shortest sidereal year of all the planets in our Solar System.
