Why is it so hard to see the planet mercury?
It is hard to see the planet mercury because Mercury is far away, Also the sun reflects off Mercury to make it hard to see.
Why would it be hard to discover a planet thay is closer to the sun than Mercury?
Why would it be hard to discover a planet that is closer to the sun than mercury
Is the planet Mercury hard?
ya... its basicly a rock
Why is it so hard for astronemers to learn about mercury?
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun, and MUCH closer to the SUN than the Earth so whenever we (astronomers or anyone from Earth) observe Mercury, we are looking almost directly at the Sun. Even when the Sun is not behind Mercury (from our perspective), we are still looking through all the light, radiation, and electromagnetic interference between the Earth and Mercury. This makes observing Mercury very hard, even with the latest in technology, because the interference is intense due to Mercury's close proximity to the Sun. The only way to get accurate readings (free from the Sun's interference) is to put a satellite in orbit around Mercury. This was finally accomplished in 2011 when the MESSENGER satellite began mapping the surface of Mercury.
What planets core is small hard and rocky?
no planet expect Mercury
Has anybody been to Mercury?
Mercury is A planet that nobody has been on it is far to hot. Plus it can get up to over many degrees C or F and Mercury is a gas planet so even the stuff on Mercury has a hard time sheilding it's way from the sun.
Why would it be hard to discover a planet is closer to the sun than mercury?
because ...when you look at the sun it hurts your eyes....and it would be harder to see the planet!
Was there any observations of the planet mercury which could not be explained by newtons theory of gravity?
yes there were observations of the planet mercury but were hard to explain by Issac newtons theory of gravity as scienctists didn't have enough information to investigate more on the subject.
Why is atmosphere absent in mercury?
Mercury has very high temperatures and is made up of hard rock. We are like a newborn baby - our planet can't resist such high temperatures, and that is why we have an atmosphere. Mercury can resist all that from the sun.
What makes it difficult for astronomers to see Mercury?
Astronomers find it difficult to see Mercury because it is close to the sun, making it challenging to observe against the sun's bright glare. Additionally, Mercury's orbit is close to the sun, so it is often only visible in the early morning or evening sky when the sun is low on the horizon.
Why do you think it is hard for astronometers on earth to learn about mercury?
It is because Mercury is close to the Sun and that makes it difficult to see. I saw it at New Year 2015 but it had vanished a few days later.
How is it possible that Mercury's surface is made of ice?
it is possible that mercury is made of ice in some parts because a lot of the planet is far away from the sun and its very hard for that part if the planet to absorb sunlight ,warmth and of course heat from the sun.
