—Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and
the smallest one in the entire Solar System.
This planet's name has nothing to do with the
liquid metal, since Mercury was named after
the Roman messenger god. Despite being
closer to the Sun than Venus, its temperatures
aren't as terribly hot as that planet's. Its surface
is quite similar to that of Earth's Moon, which
means there are a lot of craters and plains.
Speaking of craters, many of them were named
after artists or authors who made significant
contributions to their respective fields.

than 58 days to complete its rotation

Understandthetext
—Mercury takes a little more than 58 days to
complete its rotation, so try to imagine how
long days must be there! Since the
temperatures are so extreme, albeit not as
extreme as in Venus, and the solar radiation
is so high, Mercury has been deemed to be
non-habitable for humans. We've already
mentioned that Mercury is the smallest
planet in the Solar System, but conversely, its
core has the same size as Earth's! What's
more, since Mercury's core contains so much
iron—more than any other planet
