Daytime temperatures soar to around 840 degrees and at night, because there is no atmosphere to hold in heat, temperatures plummet to around -275 degrees.It's hard to imagine, but the temperature on Mercury is 427 degrees Celsius in the day and -180 degrees at night!Without a spacesuit, a human would be burned into scorched matter in a matter of seconds in a Mercury day. It's very hard to imagine, but humans would also be frozen into a hard layer of ice in a typical Mercury night!No one can imagine it, it would be possibly very gruesome.
