Well, isn't that a beautiful thought! From the perspective of Mercury, that wonderful little sun appears about two and a half times larger than it does from here on Earth. Imagine that! Just another lovely detail Mother Nature has sprinkled into our cosmic tapestry.
Mercury Mercury is the planet closest to the Sun, at an average distance from the Sun of about 58 million kilometers. By comparison, Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the Sun, while Pluto, the furthest planet, averages an enormous 5.9 billion kilometers away! If you were standing on Mercury, the Sun would appear much larger than it does on Earth. And since the Sun-Mercury distance varies so much during Mercury's orbit, the Sun would appear larger at some times than at others.
Extremely hot as Mercury is the closest to the Sun
Mercury and Venus are the only planets that can transit the Sun, from where I am.
From the perspective of Mercury, the sun appears much larger and brighter than it does from Earth. This is because Mercury is much closer to the sun, so it appears to be about two and a half times larger in the sky.
Mercury is 57.9x106m from the sun.
Answer An observer standing on the surface of Mercury and looking up (but not at the sun) would see a black sky because Mercury has no atmosphere to scatter incoming light. food yum
Same as for any other planet, the point where if you were standing there the sun would be directly overhead. Or are you asking for the point in space where Mercury reaches perihelion? The longitude of perihelion is 77.45645 degrees. This is measured from the first point in Ares, which is where the sun is at vernal equinox (on Earth).
Mercury is first from the sun
mercury is right beside the sun it is the frist planet to the sun
mercury is relative to the sun. it is actually closest to the sun
