4About it
Mercury is the smallest planet and the closest to the Sun, a gray rocky world covered in craters, a little bigger than our Moon. It races around the Sun once every 88 days.
Tap it and it spins once, fast, while the side facing the Sun glows red-hot and shimmers, then cools. The real Mercury turns slowly, and it has almost no air to hold heat, so its day side gets hot enough to melt lead, about 430 degrees Celsius, while its night side drops to about minus 180 degrees.
