Since Mercury is closest to the Sun, Sun's rays are 7 time stronger than Earth and Sun seems 2 ½ times bigger in Mercury's sky. Temperature at day is 801 Fahrenheit [427 Celsius] and at night -279 F [-173 C].

One.
Mercury has the same sun as ours.
Because of Mercury being three times closer to the sun than earth is, and its almost non-existent atmosphere, Mercury gets more than 10 times the sunlight earth does at its perihelion.
it takes 3.2 mins for sunlight to hit mercury.

88 earth days * * * * * Actually, that is a Mercury year! A mercury day is 58.64 earth days.
The night side of Mercury is not receiving any direct sunlight. Because Mercury is so close to the sun, the day side of Mercury has a significant increase in heat.
There are 59 (Earth) days in a day on Mercury. That is 1416 hours. * * * * * If you are going to go down to the level of hours, make sure the figure for days is sufficiently precise. A mercury day (sidereal rotation period) is 58.646 earth days = 1407.5 hours. However, because of Mercurys slow rotation, one full day - sunrise to sunrise takes two Mercury years. So a full day is 87.9691 x 2 = 175.9382 Earth days or 4,222.5168 hours A daylight day is one Mercury year or 2,111.2584 Hours ravenjaja:there are 1416 hours in a day on mercury.believe us. :)
One day on Mercury is the equivalent of 58 days, 15 hours, and 30 minutes on Earth, This is because the planet has a very slow rotation.
Days of sunlight is not an accurate way to measure the amount of sunlight that an area gets. Typically, an area will be described with the amount of hours of daylight per day that it has, and currently in October, there are about 12 hours of sunlight.?æ
The sun shines on Mercury all the time. Mercury rotates, albeit slowly, so all surfaces eventually are touched by sunlight. The "day" on Mercury is 56.646 earth days, or 1407.5 hours long. A link can be found below.

All 24.
the amount of sunlight each day is about 5.9 hours
Mercury has a rotation period of 58.646 days.
Mercury takes 87.97 days to orbit the Sun, and there are 24 hours in a day.
