It can be any direction. All the planets orbit the sun, so it movies.
Eastward direction, or also known as counter-clockwise.
counter-clockwise.
If it's coldoutside then Mercury would go down
Venus rotates in the opposite direction from that of Mercury, Earth, and Mars.

yes, it is different because instead of reading the bottom of the meniscus, with mercury you would have to read the top from the direction the curve is
Mercury is located closest to the Sun in our solar system. Its position from Earth varies as both planets orbit the Sun. Mercury can be found in the sky either to the east or west of the Sun depending on its position in its orbit.
Mercury rotates on its axis in a retrograde direction, meaning it rotates in the opposite direction of its orbit around the Sun. This retrograde rotation is unique compared to most other planets in our solar system.
Mercury is prograde, which means it rotates on its axis in the same direction as it orbits the Sun. This is different from Venus, for example, which is considered retrograde because it rotates in the opposite direction to its orbit.
Mercury, just as Earth rotates alone its axis. The spin is from left to right along this axis with one rotation lasting nearly 176-days on Earth. Needless to say it is a very slow spin in comparison.
There are unbalanced forces on Mercury due to its orbit around the Sun, leading to variations in its speed and direction. These forces cause Mercury to experience gravitational interactions that affect its trajectory.
No, Mercury is too close to the sun and pointing the HST in that direction could possibly damage the sensitive instruments on board.
