8、ormed when a large rock，about 100 kilometers across，knocked the surface. Beethoven，another large crater，is 643 kilometers across.The cliffs on Mercury are up to 2 kilometers high and hundreds of kilometers long. The cliffs were formed when the thin surface fell apart，as volcanic activity slowed down

9、 and Mercury became cooler.One Mercury day lasts about 59 Earth days. Mercury takes about 88 Earth days to have a complete year，instead of the 365 days that we have on the Earth. Mercury speeds around the sun so that there are about three Mercury days every two Mercury years! Mercury has a strange r

10、elationship with the Earth. Every 117 days，when Mercury is closest to the Earth，it always has the same side facing us.Mariner 10 is the only spacecraft to visit Mercury.
