Mariner 10 did not land on a celestial body; instead, it was a flyby mission that conducted multiple encounters with Mercury. Launched in 1973, it became the first spacecraft to visit Mercury, making three close approaches to the planet in 1974 and 1975. During these flybys, Mariner 10 captured images and collected data about Mercury's surface, atmosphere, and magnetic field.
Mariner 11 never sent radio pictures from Mars because it was not a mission that existed. The Mariner program had missions up to Mariner 10, which sent back images of Venus and Mercury.
It was launched in November the 3rd,1973 and it was going to Mercury.
Mercury
Mercury was studied by the Mariner 10 Probe and has a crater pitted surface.
Mariner 10 and MESSENGER flew past Mercury.
The only probe to visit Mercury was Mariner 10 in 1974. MESSENGER is on its way to Mercury but will not arrive until 2011.
The Mariner 10 probe was the first spacecraft to visit Mercury in the 1970s. It made three flybys of the planet in 1974 and 1975, capturing images and data that provided valuable insights into Mercury's surface and environment.
Mariner 10 was the first spacecraft to visit Mercury, making its flyby in 1974. It provided the first close-up images of the planet, revealing its heavily cratered surface and unique features. The mission greatly enhanced our understanding of Mercury's geology and atmosphere.

Mariner 10, in 1974-1975 and Messenger from 2008 until it was crashed into Mercury in 2015.
The first spacecraft to visit Mercury was Mariner 10, part of the Mariner program by NASA. It launched in 1973 and made three flybys of Mercury in 1974 and 1975, capturing close-up images of the planet.
Satellites don't visit anything, they orbit astronomical masses.
Mariner 10
Mariner 10 and Messenger.
No, Mariner 10 was used as a space probe for a Flyby of Venus and Mercury launched in 1973.
No probe has landed on Mercury, however Mariner 10 and Messenger have both surveyed Mercury. Messenger is due to go into orbit around Mercury in 2011 to survey and map the entire planet.
