Mercury Planet - Mercury Planet Facts - Size, Temperature, Distance, Diameter, Days of Mercury

Here you will learn various amazing facts about Mercury planet that will blow your mind. Mercury is the smallest, fastest and closest planet to the sun. Because of its closeness to sun its surface temperature can reach up to 450 degrees Celsius during day time.
As the mass of mercury is much smaller than the mass of earth, your weight on Mercury would be only 38% of your weight on Earth.
You will be surprised to know that 1 year on mercury is only of 88 Earth days, as it takes 88 days to complete one revolution around the sun, but a day On the surface of Mercury is equivalent  to 176 earth days, as it spins slower on its axis in comparison to earth.
Mercury revolves around the sun at very high speed of 180,000 km/h. This makes Mercury the fastest planet in the Solar system.

Let me tell you that mercury has almost no atmosphere. But why it is so? The reason behind this is, being small in size, its gravity is too weak to hold down a normal atmosphere. Because of the absence of atmosphere it is not capable of trapping heat from the Sun so the temperature of Mercury can fall to minus 170 degrees Celsius.
In the entire solar system temperature swing of mercury is the highest. The temperature of Mercury can swing more than 600 degrees Celsius in a single day.
As the Mercury Has no atmosphere, asteroids approaching the planet feel no air resistance and fall with great speeds on its surface. This is responsible for the formation of
Big craters on the surface of mercury.
In the year 1991 it was revealed by the radar observations that the south and the north poles of the planet may have ice, deep inside the craters. The Reason Behind this is, these Deep craters always remain in Shadow therefore are very cold.
One such Crater named as "Caloris basin" has been found on this planet. This crater is nearly 1550 km wide. It is So big, that it can accommodate the entire Texas state. It was created by an asteroid impact nearly 4 billion years ago. The asteroid Was around hundred km wide. Collision Of the asteroid with the Mercury surface generated immense amount of energy. This energy was equivalent to the energy generated by 1 trillion bombs of 1 megaton each.
The planet Mercury was named after the roman God Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods.
The diameter of mercury is 4879 km and its mass is only 5.5% of the mass of the earth.
The size of mercury is only about one third the size of the earth. You should also know that the planet Mercury has no moons.
Mariner 10 was the first spacecraft that visited Mercury. It Found that Mercury had its own magnetic field. Mercury is the second most densest planet in our solar system having metallic Core. The densest planet in our solar system is our own home planet earth.
So this was all about the weird but amazing planet Mercury. I hope you enjoyed this informative video. In the next video I will tell you many unbelievable facts about the beautiful planet Venus.
