Are there cliffs and cracks on mercury?
Yes, Mercury has cliffs and cracks on its surface due to tectonic activity that occurred in the past. The formation of these features is linked to the planet's cooling and shrinking over time, causing the surface to crack and form steep cliffs.
How water could cause cracks to form in gritstone cliffs?
Water can penetrate the small pores in gritstone cliffs. When the temperature drops, the water freezes and expands, putting pressure on the rock and causing cracks to form. Over time, repeated cycles of freezing and thawing can widen these cracks, eventually leading to the formation of larger fissures and eventual crumbling of the rock.
Is Triton rocky?
Yes, Triton is believed to have a rocky core surrounded by a layer of ice. It is one of the few moons in the solar system with a retrograde orbit, meaning it orbits in the opposite direction of its planet's rotation. Its surface is composed of a mix of icy plains, nitrogen geysers, and icy cliffs.
How does freeze-thaw weathering cause rocks on coastal cliffs to break up?
Freeze-thaw weathering occurs when water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, expands, and then thaws. This repeated cycle of freezing and thawing weakens the rocks by exerting pressure on the cracks, causing them to widen and break apart. In coastal cliffs, the presence of water from the ocean can accelerate the freeze-thaw process, leading to the gradual breakdown of the rocks over time.
Are there cliffs or cracks on Jupiter?
Not in the usual sense. Jupiter is composed of gas, not solid land, although there is some thought that the very center of Jupiter could be composed of iron or a similar element.
What plaNet is Triton on?

How were the cliffs on Mercury created?
The cliffs, or scarps, that have been found on Mercury are unlike any of the other planets in the solar system. NASA scientists believe that they formed when the center of the planet cooled, causing it to shrink, creating the cliffs.
