john William has explored the planet mercury... but no one has been sent out to this planet
From what I have learned, there has not yet been a robot that explored Mercury from closeup. They see Mercury since it is able to be seen by the naked eye in certain times of the night and day. It can also be seen with a telescope. So in all: There has not yet been a robot to explore Mercury from what I know. I apologize if this is incorrect.
There have been two space probes: Mariner 10 and Messenger.
As of now, Mercury has been explored by two spacecraft: NASA's Mariner 10, which conducted three flybys between 1974 and 1975, and the MESSENGER mission, which orbited the planet from 2011 until 2015. Mariner 10 provided the first close-up images of Mercury's surface, while MESSENGER offered extensive data on its geology, atmosphere, and magnetic field. There are currently no operational satellites or robots actively exploring Mercury.
NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft and the European Space Agency's BepiColombo mission are the main spacecraft that have explored Mercury. MESSENGER orbited Mercury from 2011 to 2015, providing detailed data and images of the planet. BepiColombo, a joint mission between ESA and JAXA, was launched in 2018 and is in the process of studying Mercury's surface and magnetic field.
Mercury was explored by no one only observed.

Yes it has, by remote space vehicles, but not by humans directly.

in terms of satalites and rovers, mars, venus, jupiter, saturn, mercury
no robots have roamed Mercury

yes, MESSENGER has explored Mercury. On March 18, 2011 a year from today, MESSENGER will transition from orbiting the Sun to being the first spacecraft ever to orbit the planet Mercury.
Mariner 10 and Messenger.
Mercury has only been explored by space probes, specifically Mariner 10 in 1973, and MESSENGER in 2004. Unrelated to the planet are the Mercury spy satellite program of the 1990s, and the 1959-1963 human spaceflight program Project Mercury.
