3D animation featuring the heavily cratered surface of Mercury, the most cratered object in our solar system. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the smallest. It rotates counter-clockwise, east to west, the same direction as most other planets in our solar system. It takes Mercury longer than 58 Earth days to make a complete rotation. The amount of rotation shown in this 12-second animation, 12 degrees, would take longer than three Earth days in real time. | |
