What questions are we addressing?
We want to uncover the secrets of the closest planet to the Sun:
Investigate Mercury's origins: Where did Mercury form?
Examine the presence of water on the planet: Is there really water on Mercury?
Compare historical with current activity: Is Mercury dead or alive?
Understand the magnetic activity: Why does Mercury have a magnetic field?
Explain the planet's brightness: Why is Mercury so dark?
Ist echt spannend, wie wenig wir über Merkur wissen, obwohl wir technologisch schon so weit fortgeschritten sind.
