What are the satellites on Mercury?
Technically a satellite is something in orbit around a planet, so there cannot be any satellites ON Mercury. I will assume you mean satillites in orbit around Mercury. Mariner 10 was the first probe sent to Mercury, however it orbited the sun (i.e. was not technically a satellite of Mercury) however it's prime purpose was to observe Mercury. The probe MESSENGER and the two probes from the BepiColombo mission are currently the only satellites orbiting Mercury.
