Exploring the Relationship Between the Sun and Mercury: A NASA Perspective"
The Sun and Mercury are two celestial bodies in our solar system. The Sun is a star and the center of our solar system, emitting light and heat due to nuclear reactions in its core. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun, known for its extreme temperatures and lack of a substantial atmosphere. It's also the smallest planet in the solar system.
