 Introduction to the Trojan War
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun
and the smallest one in the Solar System.
This planet's name has nothing to do with
the liquid metal, since Mercury was
named after the Roman messenger god.
Its surface is similar to that of Earth’s
Moon
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 on Venus, Mercury has been
deemed to be non-habitable for humans
