（单词翻译）
Reason/ you are going to go to Mercury as a travel destination would be this night sight view because it's going to be highly unique in the solar system. You have sodium1 that’s atoms that are streaming off and giving enough to see yellow light, so you could almost look like you are standing2 in a donut of sodium emission3.
With the sunrise 3 months away you have plenty of time to sit back and take in the view, framed in a halo of
amber4 light.
The sun sets, you could get a very nice light show and I know people go to Canada to look at the northern lights all the time and so, that would be a reason to go to Mercury.
Not a night out? Then head into the light . But when you are this close to a stellar rotisserie, make sure you pack plenty of sunscreen.
If you want a suntan you can't beat the dusty sands of Mercury, stretchout on the ground here and the sun crackles and fizzes right above you, appearing almost 3 times bigger in the sky and 7 times as hot.
If you are walking on the surface of Mercury you need one heck of a spacesuit because if you are in the sun it will be extremely hot, you would see an enormous sun in the sky that would just, you know, burn you to death if you, you know, spend any time in it
whatsoever5.
The Mercury really climbs on Mercury to a toasty 840 degrees
Fahrenheit6 . That's about twice as hot as your kitchen oven on full heat.
You need a bit more than SPF30 sunscreen here. To escape the heat you can always head to the dark side but dress warmly. With virtually no atmosphere to keep the heat in, the temperature
plummets7 to minus 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
