Mercury is reminiscent of the Moon - simply a ball of rock hotter than our satellite. Despite its appearance, though, the planet actually does have an atmosphere. Some astronomers believe that Mercury originally had a thick atmosphere like Earth, but the planet is so small that it has very low gravity. As a result of the planet's low gravity, Mercury's atmosphere was blown away by strong solar winds. This barely existent atmosphere is made of a number of compounds including hydrogen, oxygen, water vapor, and potassium.
