The First Real Images Of Mercury - What We Found?
In this video, we'll be discussing the first real images of Mercury, what we found and what implications it has.
Ever since the Mariner 10 probe flew by Mercury in 1974, we've been looking at the planet's surface. But until now, we've only had a few blurry images. This new set of pictures, taken by the MESSENGER probe, is the first real images of Mercury's surface.
We'll be discussing the implications of these new images, and what they could mean for the future of space exploration. Tune in to find out what we found!

@@failurestrings "...saying one day on Earth would [equal] 59 days on Mercury." So Mercury would then be spinning much faster than Earth spins which it doesn't, iirc. It probably should have been stated the other way around. It should be one Mercury rotation (day) happens in 59 days on Earth. It isn't locked with the sun. It has a 3:2 orbit resonance meaning that in Mercury time it rotated three times (3 days based on Mercury) per every 2 orbits around the sun (Mercury years). So a day on Mercury is longer than a year on Mercury.

Well done video, thanks.
Also of interest, quoting from the Wikipedia page on the planet Mercury: "Mercury orbits the Sun in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, meaning that relative to the background stars, it rotates on its axis exactly three times for every two revolutions it makes around the Sun.[a][21] Counterintuitively, due to Mercury's slow rotation, an observer on the planet would see only one Mercurian solar day (176 Earth days) every two Mercurian solar years (88 Earth days each).[4]" [See the Wikipedia article for the citation references.] By contrast, Earth has a 24 hour solar day, but a full rotation of Earth relative to the background stars occurs in approximately 23 hours and 56 minutes.

Great vid, good grafics excellent narration, background music doesn't overpower the narro
I really like the presentation of this video--the soft edges of the distinctly well-enunciated, gently southern (US) narrator's accent was very pleasing, and lends itself well to masterfully conveying educational content--as opposed to the "Zeus is speaking from his throne on Mt. Olympus to dumb mortals" melodrama often used, today...;) Very refreshing! (A small, but important distinction, imo.) From the comments, I can see that others noticed it as well, and were also similarly impressed. Educators take heed. It stands out for me and others because it is a presentational style not commonly seen/used these days (unfortunately!). Or, maybe it's just that I watch too many KZread video clips that purport to be "scientific"!...;) I noted only one very small but fairly major error in the entire presentation, and that is found in the beginning intro, where it is stated that Mercury's magnetic field is strong enough to deflect a supernova/e star flare...;) Uh, no...;) As noted in the entire presentation, some normally encountered solar-wind particles will be deflected by the field, but even the Earth's much stronger magnetic field would avail nothing in the event of a direct supernova flare hit from trusty old Sol! And in the event of such a supernova extinction event in our system, Mercury and possibly even Earth would be completely subsumed inside the expanding star itself in such a supernova. The damage would be terrific and permanent. Of course, since Mercury is a dead planet, it might emerge "unscathed" after the terminal flare subsides, but that has nothing to do with the magnetic field of Mercury! Hah, of course not. The statement in the intro was not repeated anywhere in the body of the video, hence it must have simply been a minor oversight.
Merc-a-ree, really ?
The "Hollows" at 19:34 appear to have enormous sand dunes in the small hollow between the two much larger, upper depressions. The dunes look like the part of one underlying alluvial plane. These would be created by liquid most likely, or by complex winds. Liquid would be my guess, which came down from a cut in the large depression on top of it.

The aphelion of Mercury is never in the same position relative to the stars and moves slowly. Scientists could not explain this. However, when Einstein's time dilation equations were applied, it accounted for the movement of Mercury's orbit within 1% accuracy. It was the first significant proof of special relativity.

@malcolmabram2957

@@annasdad8008 My understanding is that general relativity describes the curvature of space which increases with increase in gravitational field. At Mercury's perihelion it is closest to the Sun and will experience a higher gravitational force, whereby the space time is more warped (although strictly gravity is not a force in general relativity), and as such it moves faster. This means, that Mercury takes less time to travel a distance compared to a stationary observer in space (i.e. astronomers on Earth). As a result, following perihelion it emerges in a different position in space, compared to that when applying Newtonian mechanics. The equation that accounts for this change in position comes from the time dilation equation, as applied to distance, and such is special relativity.

Pluto will always be a planet to me. Just because some late attendees at a science conference, where the majority of attendees had already left (including the most senior ones), doesn't get to change its status in my book.

That would also disqualify Jupiter and Earth, both have co-orbital asteroids. And I don't think we're about to disqualify Jupiter and Earth.
Thank you!
Excellent.
Wack me around the ears if I haven't got this correct. If mercury rotates slower than earth, wouldn't that mean that one day on mercury would be a greater number of days on eath, instead of the opposite as stated here? I don't mean to be a smart arse. Regardless though, I love this channel

You are right. To me, it is a mistake.

If Mercury rotates only 1/3 as fast as earth, wouldn't that mean it takes 3 earth days to = one day on Mercury? BTW--> I don't think you are a smart ass, I think you are a happy little green frog in the forest. :-)
So, if you're 30 years old on Earth, you'd be 124 1/2 years old on Mercury.

I don’t think you‘d survive 124 years on that hostile planet.
That was awesome
THANKFUL for rousing information video so for more knowing and knowlidge about our one of the planet's - MERCURY / Ruteren Iren.
That orbital model was deceptive. It greatly exaggerates the oval.
Real, like in mars “real” images..?
Very well done. We need color pictures!
It must be cool to be one of the artists that does all these renderings for NASA. 🙌🏼

It never amazes you? As in, you are never amazed by what sky daddy made?
When doing a piece on Mercury, maybe find a narrator who can pronounce "Mercury" ...and "temperature."
