What else can I help you with?
Can you breathe on planet mercury?
No. Mercury essentially has no atmosphere. Earth is the only planet with an atmosphere that humans can breathe.
Which planet is heavily cratered earth or mercury?
The most terrestrial planet in our Solar System is Mercury as evidenced by Mariner 10 satellite that flew by Mercury 3 times during 1974 and 1975. A new satellite, Messenger, was launched in 2004 and will be orbiting Mercury next year.
What dry planet becomes very hot during the day due to its closeness to the sun?
Mercury is the planet that becomes very hot during the day due to its proximity to the sun. With minimal atmosphere to retain heat, its surface temperatures can reach up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit (427 degrees Celsius) during the day.
Is Mercury the 2nd planet away from the sun?
No, Mercury is the closest planet to the sun. It is very hot and rocky, there is no atmosphere and it is the smallest because Pluto is no longer known as a planet. Mercury is 430 degrees during the day and -170 degrees at night. The sky is black on Mercury and it would take ~4 months to reach Mercury. I hope this answers many of your Mercury questions. I collected my information in a book from the library.
What is mercury's raw planet?
Mercury is the planet: there is no raw (or ripe) planet associated with it!
Why can humans live on Planet Murcery?
Humans cannot live on Mercury because the planet has extreme temperatures, ranging from -290°F (-180°C) at night to 800°F (430°C) during the day. Additionally, Mercury has a very thin atmosphere, which does not provide enough protection from the harsh conditions and solar radiation.
Why is the planet Mercury not inhabitated?
The temperatures on Mercury are too extreme for humans to survive. There is also no oxygen on the planet.
Can you breathe on planet mercury?
No. Mercury essentially has no atmosphere. Earth is the only planet with an atmosphere that humans can breathe.
Have humans traveled to planet mercury?
!I dont know ..... You answer it alone
Does the planet Mercury have the highest surface temp?
No. Venus does (greenhouse effect).
Is mercury from Mercury?
Both the planet Mercury and the chemical mercury - also written as Hg - are named after the Roman god Mercury (latin: Mercurius), known for speed and mobility. The chemical is only named after the god. Humans mine mercury ore on Earth, not from the planet Mercury.
Why wouldn't plants and humans survive on mercury?
The planet Mercury is way to close to the sun. Plants, humans, and all other organisms would be incinerated by the heat of the sun.
Why isn't the closest planet to the sun the hottest planet?
Venus is hotter than Mercury, even if mercury is the closest. It's because of the green house effect which traps the heat inside the planet :)
Is mercury a planet or dwarf planet?
Mercury is a planet.
Does the greenhouse effect make mercury very hot?
There are no greenhouse gases on Mercury. Just a very thin atmosphere of helium and hydrogen. So it has no greenhouse effect. Its surface ranges in temperature from -270°F to 800°F (-168°C to 427°C).
Which planet is heavily cratered earth or mercury?
The most terrestrial planet in our Solar System is Mercury as evidenced by Mariner 10 satellite that flew by Mercury 3 times during 1974 and 1975. A new satellite, Messenger, was launched in 2004 and will be orbiting Mercury next year.
Has anyone been on the planet mercury?
As of 2014, humans have not set foot on the planet Mercury. To date, the only probes sent have been Mariner 10 which did a flyby, and the MESSENGER orbiter; both probes from NASA.
