Mercury's hidden side

Via [livejournal.com profile] evildrganymede, I've learned that NASA's MESSENGER space probe. MESSENGER is the first probe to visit the planet Mercury to 1974-1975's Mariner 10, and will be the first probe to entirely map Mercury's surface. (Mariner 10 charted only half.)

People interested in more information should go to SpaceRef.com and Science Daily, which have more information about the MESSENGER mission.
