Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun in our solar system, orbiting it at an average distance of about 57.91 million kilometers (36 million miles). It completes a full orbit around the Sun approximately every 88 Earth days. Due to its proximity, Mercury experiences extreme temperature variations and has a very thin atmosphere. Additionally, it has a unique orbital resonance with the Sun, resulting in a 3:2 spin-orbit coupling.
