No, Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.

It is very hot and rocky, there is no atmosphere and it is the smallest because Pluto is no longer known as a planet. Mercury is 430 degrees during the day and -170 degrees at night. The sky is black on Mercury and it would take ~4 months to reach Mercury.

I hope this answers many of your Mercury questions. I collected my information in a book from the library.
