Spacecraft buzzes Mercury's north pole and beams back stunning photos

  • A spacecraft has beamed back some of the best close-up photos yet of Mercury's north pole. The European and Japanese robotic explorer swooped as close as 183 miles (295 kilometers) above Mercury's night side before passing directly over the planet's north pole.

The European Space Agency's BepiColombo spacecraft, during its third flyby of Mercury on January 19, 2024, captured and transmitted back to Earth stunning images of the planet's north pole. These images showcase Mercury's cratered surface, including the newly named Edna Manley crater, and provide detailed views of the Beagle Rupes, a prominent geological feature. The flyby was part of BepiColombo's mission to eventually enter Mercury's orbit in 2025, after using the planet's gravity to adjust its trajectory. The photos not only highlight the stark beauty of Mercury but also contribute valuable data for scientific study, offering insights into the planet's geological history and surface composition.
