Is Mercury the most mysterious planet in the Solar System?
Of all the planets in our solar system, Mercury may be the most mysterious. It’s so close to the Sun that terrestrial telescopes can have trouble looking at it, and what we’ve been able to gather about it has left scientists scratching their heads. A huge metallic core represents about half the planet’s volume (Earth’s is just 10\%, by comparison).
