Like Mercury, rocky planets may undergo changes due to internal forces which push and pull at crustal material, creating landforms such as volcanoes, mountains, and canyons. These forces are known as tectonics and may contribute to landform formation such as volcanoes. Scientists have various hypotheses as to what caused Mercury’s scarred surface, one being its…
Mercury is the smallest planet, orbiting our Sun in just 88 days and boasting a metallic core comprising 61% of its total volume. Due to its high density, mercury alloys easily with gold and silver; its rapid expansion rate made Mercury ideal as thermometer material until digital ones were introduced as thermometer alternatives. It is…

Mercury is the sole planet in our Solar System without any moons due to its small size and weak gravity; too small for supporting one, plus closeness to the Sun makes survival of such bodies impossible. Its egg-shaped orbit lasts 88 Earth days and it may approach as close as 29 million miles to the…
