won’t miss the point of your presentation
 Do you need longer text?
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. 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
