How are mercury and the moon similar?
There are three general similarities, although there are also vast differences.Mercury, like Earth, orbits the Sun, so it has the same relationship to the Sun as the Moon has to the Earth.The Moon and Mercury have virtually no atmospheres, so they both are heavily cratered. The lack of an atmosphere allows most meteors to impact unimpeded, and there is no weathering by air or water to erase the craters. This lack of atmosphere also means that the surfaces get much hotter in the daylight, and frigidly cold on the sides facing away from the Sun. This is a much greater difference, however, on Mercury, due to its closeness to the Sun.
