	StarChild: The planet Mercury
		Scientists have detected a magnetic field surrounding Mercury, though it is not as strong as the field around the Earth.
		Scientists theorize that Mercury's field is due to an iron-bearing core or possibly to the solar winds.
		The surface of Mercury has been shaped by three processes: impact cratering where large objects struck the surface resulting in crater formation, volcanism where lava flooded the surface, and tectonic activity where the planet's crust moved in order to adjust to the planetary cooling and contracting.

	Mercury-Atlas 5 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The flight used Mercury spacecraft # 9 and Atlas # 93-D. On February 24, 1961 spacecraft # 9 arrived at Cape Canaveral.
		Mercury-Atlas 5 would be launched from Complex 14 at Cape Canaveral on a heading 72.51 degrees east of north.
		Mercury spacecraft # 9, used in the Mercury-Atlas 5 mission, is currently displayed at the North Carolina Museum of Life and Science, Durham NC.

	Mercury (planet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mercury ranges from −0.4 to 5.5 in apparent magnitude, and its greatest angular separation from the Sun (greatest elongation) is only 28.3°, meaning it is only ever seen in twilight.
		Mercury's axial tilt is only 0.01 degrees, which is over 300 times smaller than that of Jupiter, which is the second smallest axial tilt of all planets at 3.1 degrees.
		One theory is that Mercury originally had a metal-silicate ratio similar to common chondrite meteors and a mass approximately 2.25 times its current mass, but that early in the solar system's history Mercury was struck by a planetesimal of approximately 1/6 that mass.

	Mercury
		Mercury was named by the Romans after the fleet-footed messenger of the gods because it seemed to move more quickly than any other planet.
		Although Mercury is not tidally locked to the Sun, its rotational period is tidally coupled to its orbital period.
		Mercury is marked with great curved cliffs or lobate scarps that were apparently formed as Mercury cooled and shrank a few kilometers in size.

	Mercury
		Mercury is the only body in the solar system known to have an orbital/rotational resonance with a ratio other than 1:1 (though many have no resonances at all).
		Mercury's interior is dominated by a large iron core whose radius is 1800 to 1900 km.
		Mercury is often visible with binoculars or even the unaided eye, but it is always very near the Sun and difficult to see in the twilight sky.

		Mercury can be a source of environmental contamination when present in seed dressing fungicides, anti-slime fungicides in pulp and paper industries, by-products of burning coal, mine tailings and wastes from chlorine-alkali industries.
		Inorganic mercury which enters a water source is readily converted to methyl mercury by aquatic microorganisms and accumulates in the tissues of fish.
		Mercury which is eliminated from the female via egg laying, has been reported to cause abnormal egg laying behavior, impaired reproduction, slowed duckling growth, and altered duckling behavior in mallard ducks.

	Curriculum-Mercury In The Environment
		Mercury is a silvery, liquid metal at room temperature and is often referred to as one of the "heavy metals." Like water, mercury can evaporate and become airborne.
		That is OK, it represents the mercury that is excreted by the animal (not 100% of the mercury accumulates).
		Mercury levels are strongly correlated with the length of the fish because longer fish are older and have had more time to accumulate mercury.

		Mercury is mined when present in cinnabar ores, which generally contain about 10 kg per tonne of rock.
		Mercury is also present at very low levels throughout the biosphere.
		In industrialised countries, awareness of the potential adverse impacts of mercury on health and the environment has led to a reduction of both the volume and the range of uses of mercury and its compounds, particularly during the 1980s and 1990s.

	Mercury: Scientific Facts on Mercury
		The pure form, elemental mercury, is liquid at room temperature and slowly forms a vapour in the air.
		Once released, mercury enters air, water and soil, and moves from one to another until it comes to rest in sediments or landfills.
		However, mercury mining is decreasing and therefore releases from mining and mercury use may be in decline.

		Mercury may be difficult to find (for some folks) but it has had a far reaching effect on celestial mechanics and physics.
		In Mercury's case, the planet had to be close to Mercury so it could only affect this planet and not any others.

		Childhood vaccines contain doses of mercury that are in excess of the Federal Safety Guidelines, and evidence shows a link between these excessive doses of mercury, found in thimerosal-containing vaccines, and neurodevelopment disorders such as autism and speech disorders, as well as heart disease, according to a study.
		It is nearly incomprehensible that the well-documented, toxic mercury is still in many vaccines, years after federal agencies have mandated that thimerosal be removed from the hepatitis vaccine.
		Most people, physicians included, don't understand that the mercury preservative thimerosal is still used in most vaccines and is likely one of the major contributing factors to vaccine toxicity.

	Public Health and Economic Consequences of Methyl Mercury Toxicity to the Developing Brain
		The toxicity of methyl mercury to the developing brain was first recognized in the 1950s in Minamata, Japan, where consumption of fish with high concentrations of methyl mercury by pregnant women resulted in at least 30 cases of cerebral palsy in children; exposed women were affected minimally if at all (Harada 1968).
		The lower-bound estimate assumed that children born to women with mercury concentrations 4.84-5.8 µg/L suffer no loss in cognition and that successive portions of the birth cohort experience losses of cognition of 0.56, 1.35, and 5.99 IQ points.
		Therefore, a total of 87 total tons of mercury were deposited in the United States in that year, of which 60% (52 of 87) were attributable to American anthropogenic sources (U.S. This mercury would have been available to bioaccumulate in the marine and aquatic food chains and to enter American freshwater and saltwater fish.
