Mercury’s extremely hot temperatures might help ice form on its surface

Ice on Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, may seem impossible. But, could scorching temperatures on that world help form ice? The scorching surface of Mercury, where temperatures can reach 400 degrees Celsius (750 Fahrenheit), may seem to be the last place astronomers might find ice. However, this enormous heat could play a significant role in the formation of ice on Mercury, a new study reveals. Many astronomers believe that most of the water on the Mercury was likely delivered to the sur
