People have followed Mercury's path through twilight skies since ancient times, but only since Mariner 10 flew past in 1974 have we begun to unravel the mysteries of the sun's closest neighbor. Impressive NASA photographs highlight a guided tour of this cratered world where the days are hot enough to melt lead and the nights reach 300 degrees below zero.
