Why Mercury is Tiny, Fast and Fascinating — A Science Explainer

We are kicking off 2026 with a multi-episode tour of our solar system!

So, starting from the Sun, we will first hit its closest neighbor, the sweltering planet, Mercury! This tiny little planet has the shortest year as it rotates around the Sun fastest of the solar system but its day is INCREDIBLY long at over 175 Earth days!

I love to share science facts and concepts with all types of audiences. If you like how I explored our pal, Mercury, check out my e-learning and corporate narration demos. Have a project that requires a science and technical background, let’s talk!
