Planet Detective

 Hello readers today I'm going to be making a new blog post about Science, Today we are going to be a Planet detective What happened to Mercury/ Whiro's atmosphere.The planet's small size means that its gravity is too small to hold down a normal atmosphere. There is a very thin atmosphere around the planet. Mercury is really close to sun its just 57.705 million km. Earth to sun is 151.21 million km. The mass on  Mercury is 3.285 × 10^23 kg. Earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg.

Not having an atmosphere affects Mercury by getting hotter because the atmosphere protects planets from the sun. Nothing will be able to live in the surface of mercury.During the day, temperatures on Mercury's surface can reach 800 degrees Fahrenheit 430 degrees Celsius. Mercury is not habitable. Earth is 45 to 70 degrees this temperature is habitable.How long is the sun going to live 5,000,000,000—five billion—years to go. After it, the sun will turn into the white dwarf.

How Did Mercury Get Its Name? The Romans believed that gods and goddesses were in charge of everything on Earth. Whiro is the lord of darkness and embodiment of all evil in Māori mythology.
