Because it is so close to the Sun and has almost no atmosphere, the side facing away from the Sun is very cold (-170 Celsius, -275 Fahrenheit) and the side facing it gets very hot (450 Celsius, 840 Fahrenheit). In case you were wondering, it is hot enough to melt lead, but only when it's facing the Sun enough. And Venus can melt lead anywhere (all year) because it's extremely dense atmosphere traps the heat in a greenhouse effect. These are the only two planets that can melt lead.
