I think all of you have spotted Mercury by now. Can anyone tell me what kind of landscape there is on Mercury? You should be able to work it out by studying Mercury in your telescopes."
He waited to give them a few moments to think before adding "Also does anyone know the mythological story surrounding Mercury?"
Ooooooooh THERE was Mercury! Tori found it at last and used her telescope to zoom in real close to the planet. Nifty. It sure looked a lot like the moon.
So that was Tori's answer to the professor's question. "It looks a lot like the moon, professor, with all those ridges and craters and stuff. And Mercury was the Roman god of trade. He was the son of Jupiter too." Another planet. Interesting.
