| Summary | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Researchers pursue means to explore Mercury. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Full colonization of the innermost world of our solar system must remain a pipe dream, for the alternately burning and freezing landscape of Mercury could not possibly support more than the briefest human existence. However, there is some hope for limited settlement in the permanently shadowed craters which litter the planet's poles, which we believe also may contain deposits of frozen water. But the true gain in enabling our fleets to reach the Sun's closest planet would be its sheer abundance of resources. Some 70 percent of Mercury is composed of metal that could support our development in space, and its proximity to the Sun means our solar power stations will have abundant generation for our habs. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
