Mercury's Diameter Has Shrunk by 23 Km
A recent study has found that Mercury may have shrunk during its history by as much as 30% more than previously believed, due to layers of debris resulting from massive collisions. It is thought that this contraction is caused by the solidification of the planet's interior and the evaporation of its core, leading to a greater reduction in its size than earlier estimates suggested. These findings are important for understanding Mercury's evolution and the geological transformations it has undergone over time.
