The Size of Mercury




The diameter of Mercury is 4,878 km. You could put about three Mercury's side by side to get the diameter of Earth. The diameter of Mercury is only 38% the diameter of Earth. Mercury could possibly fit into Earth about 2 or 1 1/2 times.

  1. I like how you gave great information about the size of mercury and even used percents and fractions. One thing i think you should have did was to add Earth's diameter too. So that way we could have compared the size of both planets even better.

  2. Nice picture, with a picture I find the facts are easier to read and it's more interesting with a picture.
