Colonization of Mercury

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Mercury has been suggested as one possible target for space colonization of the inner Solar System, along with Mars, Venus, the Moon and the asteroid belt. Permanent colonies would almost certainly be restricted to the polar regions due to the extreme daytime temperatures elsewhere on the planet. Learn more about the possibilities, challenges and potential rewards of colonization of Mercury in the following pages.
