Mercury's rotation period is 59 Earth days. Mercury is an inner planet that is also the closest to the sun. Mercury is a small planet with an equatorial diameter of 4,879 kilometers. Mercury's gravity is 38 percent that of the Earth's. Mercury does not have moons associated with it. However, it does have many craters as the result of collisions from asteroids and comets.
Regarding Mercuryâs spin, the AGU statement explained: Mercury does not rotate on its axis smoothly, like a record, but experiences regular fluctuations in speed over an 88-day cycle â a year on the closest planet to the sun. These oscillations, or librations, are caused by the planetâs interactions with the sun as it moves around the star.
