BepiColombo Exploring Mercury
BepiColombo is a spacecraft that will study the Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun. This picture was created by an artist to show the spacecraft in orbit around the planet, where it will arrive in 2025. This is an especially challenging mission as Mercury is very close to the Sun, making it one of the hottest regions of our Solar System.
