Share something unforgettable your parents did for you
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the smallest one in the Solar System—it’s only a bit larger than the Moon. The planet’s name has nothing to do with the liquid metal, since it was named after the Roman messenger god
DEAR SANTA:
Venus has a beautiful name and is the second planet from the Sun. It’s terribly hot—even hotter than Mercury—and its atmosphere is extremely poisonous. It’s the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after the Moon
