- Standing on Mercury's surface at it's closest point to the sun, the sun would appear more than three times larger than it does on Earth.
- Mercury has a small magnetic field whose strength is about 1% of Earth's magnetic field.
- People say that the inside of Mercury is like Earth's inside, but Mercury's outside is Like Earth's moon.
- Until 1962, it was thought that Mercury's "day" was the same length as it's "year" as so to keep that same face to the Sun as much as the Earth's Moon does to the Earth.
