The facts about Mercury
Have you ever wondered about the length of a day on Mercury? This is unexpected! In our solar system, the length of a day for a planet is determined by how long it takes the sun to return to its highest position in the sky. However, Mercury violates these norms. This small planet rotates so leisurely that one day on it lasts more than a year - the Sun takes 176 Earth days to complete its circuit in Mercury's sky. Mercury orbits the Sun in only 88 Earth days, but because of its slow rotation, standing on its surface you will see a peculiar movement of the Sun, sometimes even eastward, in contrast to the westward trajectory observed from Earth. Mercury's special rotation and orbit result in a truly unique astronomical image. So when you're admiring the night sky, think about Mercury's extraordinary position, where one day stretches into a whole year. Isn't that intriguing?
