Mercury's extreme temperatures and lack of an atmosphere would make it very difficult, if not impossible, for people to live on the planet. ... With its extreme temperature fluctuations, Mercury is not likely a planet that humans would ever want to colonize.

When at "perihelion" (the orbital point where a planet is closest to the Sun), Mercury is about 46.0 million km from the Sun and at "aphelion" (the orbital point farthest from the Sun), it is at a distance of 69.8 million km.

Living on the surface of Jupiter itself would be difficult, but maybe not impossible. The gas giant has a small rocky core with a mass 10 times less than Earth's, but it's surrounded by dense liquid hydrogen extending out to 90 percent of Jupiter's diameter.

The strongest candidates for natural satellite habitability are currently icy satellites such as those of Jupiter and Saturn—Europa and Enceladus respectively, although if life exists in either place, it would probably be confined to subsurface habitats.

Mercury Planet Venus Sun and Rahu are friendly planets. Mercury considers Moon as its enemy. Saturn, Ketu, Mars and Jupiter are even with Mercury.

Size of Mercury Mercury is the smallest planet in the Solar System by surface area, volume, and equatorial diameter. Surprisingly, it is also one of the most dense. It gained its 'smallest' title after Pluto was demoted. That is why older material refers to Mercury as the second smallest planet.

In many ways, living in space is not very different from living on Earth. ... The only significant differences from living on Earth are that they operate in the confined space of the Space Shuttle orbiter cabin and that they, and all objects inside the cabin, float.

Mariner 10 took 147 days to get from Earth to Mercury. More recently, NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft launched on August 3, 2004 to study Mercury in orbit. It made its first flyby on January 14th, 2008. That's a total of 1,260 days to get from Earth to Mercury.

There's no process inside Uranus, like volcanism on Earth, that would give life inside the planet a form of energy. Life on Uranus would have to be vastly different from anything we have here on Earth to be able to survive.

I told my dad I found it and he told me not to mess with it and that it is toxic if exposed for a prolonged time. Mercury is dangerous, and you need to be cautious not to be exposed to it directly for long periods of time, but simply handling it is not going to make you drop dead.

Geography. The Vex have total control of Mercury and inhabit a massive stronghold on Venus humans call The Citadel. They have a stronghold on Io which Asher Mir calls the Pyramidion. They also have a presence on Mars and are the sole residents of the Black Garden.

Last year, astronomers raised the possibility that our nearest neighbor, Proxima Centauri, has several potentially habitable exoplanets that could fit the bill. Proxima Centauri is 4.2 light-years from Earth, a distance that would take about 6,300 years to travel using current technology.

It is the least explored inner planet. As of 2015, the Mariner 10 and MESSENGER missions have been the only missions that have made close observations of Mercury. MESSENGER made three flybys before entering orbit around Mercury. ... Compared to other planets, Mercury is difficult to explore.

Mercury is a rocky planet with a huge iron core which makes up a large part of its interior. The core takes up nearly 3/4 of the planet's diameter. Mercury's iron core is about the size of the moon. Iron makes up about 70% of Mercury's total weight making Mercury the most iron-rich planet in the Solar System.

While planet Jupiter is an unlikely place for living things to take hold, the same is not true of some of its many moons. Europa is one of the likeliest places to find life elsewhere in our solar system. There is evidence of a vast ocean just beneath its icy crust, where life could possibly be supported.
