NASAâs Messenger spacecraft crashes into Mercury — MESSENGER (@MESSENGER2011) April 30, 2015. Messenger made history in March 2011 when it became the first probe to orbit Mercury. The crash ended a successful mission for Messenger, which was launched in August 2004. The spacecraft has undertaken extensive mapping of Mercury during its journey, and has sent a slew of data on the planet back to earth.

Who Discovered Mercury? At times poisoning was the result. The discovery of mercury as an element was in the 18th century. Incidentally, at about the same time, also 3000 years ago, the Sumerians discovered the planet Mercury.Like the Babylonians who discovered mercury and put in many records but not as an element, the Sumerians recorded the planet mercury quite a lot.uang Qin, an emperor of China, was not the man who discovered mercury. But he was among those who discovered too late the deadly effect of the element when ingested. He was killed when he took a mixture of alcohol and jade mercury powder.

Hypothetical moon of Mercury Observation of a moon of Mercury from Earth would be difficult because Mercury is relatively close to the Sun. For example, Mercury was not observed in the infrared spectrum until 1995. NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft, which orbited Mercury from 2011 to 2015, did not detect any moon.

Mercury Data from the October 2008 flyby of MESSENGER gave researchers a greater appreciation for the jumbled nature of Mercury's surface. Mercury's surface is more heterogeneous than either Mars's or the Moon's, both of which contain significant stretches of similar geology, such as maria and plateaus. Impact basins and craters

2015 Mercury Retrograde There are three Mercury Retrograde periods each year, each lasting for about 3 weeks or so. In 2015 Mercury goes retrograde in the three periods of January-February, May-June and September-October. Of late Mercury retrograde is gaining much importance in our lives.

Mercury Mercury attains inferior conjunction (nearest approach to Earth) every 116 Earth days on average, but this interval can range from 105 days to 129 days due to the planet's eccentric orbit.

- Mercury is one of the two inner planets between the Sun and the Earth. It is therefore considered as a very personal planet. It never strays very far from the Sun and indeed is not so easy to see because of it's proximity to the Sun.

Project Mercury Project Mercury (USA, 1959-1963) Project Mercury was the first human spaceflight program of the United States. It ran from 1959 through 1963 with the goal of putting a human in orbit around the Earth. The Mercury-Atlas 6 flight on 20 February 1962 was the first Mercury flight to achieve this goal.

Mercury was named for? Mercury is the Roman name for the Greek god Hermes, who is the messenger of the Gods. A messenger needs to be fast, and as Mercury orbits the Sun in just 88 days (The fastes … t in the solar system), and as it was a God, it must be a messenger.

- Here’s a listing of the missions that have gone to Mercury, and a few that will be going shortly. Mariner 10 was launched on November 3, 1973 to fly past Mercury and Venus. It was the last spacecraft in the Mariner program (Mariner 11 and Mariner 12 were renamed to Voyager 1 and 2).

Hypothetical moon of Mercury A moon was detected moving away from Mercury in 1974, and was, eventually, identified as a star in the background, 31 Crateris. 31 Crateris happens to be a spectroscopic binary with a period of 2.9 days, and this may have been the source of the ultraviolet radiation detected in 1974.

Mercury-in-glass thermometer Mercury-in-glass thermometer for measurement of room temperature. The mercury-in-glass or mercury thermometer was invented by physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in Amsterdam (1714). It consists of a bulb containing mercury attached to a glass tube of narrow diameter; the volume of mercury in the tube is much less than the volume of the bulb.

How Mercury Retrograde Affects Your Relationships How Mercury Affects Communication. Mercury rules communication. When Mercury is traveling in its normal planetary motion communication, especially in relationships, can be difficult at times. With a retrograde Mercury, communication can come to a standstill. There are missed communications because cellphones, home phones, email systems, the Internet, Facebook and Twitter can have greater than usual technology snafus. Text messages get lost, Email systems go down.

MERCURY Hatmakers of that time commonly used a mercury compound in their craft. It was used to treat the felt and beaver fur that lined the hats. Eventually, exposure to the mercury began to cause changes in the hatmakers' bodies. Their personalities and behavior became erratic.

Mercury-in-glass thermometer Mercury-in-glass thermometer for measurement of room temperature. The mercury-in-glass or mercury thermometer was invented by physicist Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit in Amsterdam (1714).he volume of mercury changes slightly with temperature; the small change in volume drives the narrow mercury column a relatively long way up the tube. The space above the mercury may be filled with nitrogen or it may be at less than atmospheric pressure, a partial vacuum.

Lymphatic system The lymphatic system consists of lymphatic organs, a conducting network of lymphatic vessels, and the circulating lymph. The thymus and the bone marrow constitute the primary lymphoid organs involved in the production and early clonal selection of lymphocyte tissues.ne of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres. The other main function is that of defense in the immune system. Lymph is very similar to blood plasma: it contains lymphocytes and other white blood cells.
