Cardsmiths Space – Galactic Edition – Mercury #26 – Garnet 17/75

Description:
Though closest to the blazing Sun, Mercury surprises us with ice at its north pole. The planet’s tilted axis keeps parts of the pole shaded, preserving frozen water. Scientists believe the ice may have originated from comets or meteorites, or even from vapor rising beneath the surface. A fascinating paradox of fire and ice, Mercury is both searingly hot and mysteriously frozen.

Quote (Back of Card):
“Though the closest planet to our blazing Sun, Mercury has ice at its north pole. How? The tilt of Mercury’s axis keeps part of the pole shaded. The water may have come from comets or meteorites striking the planet, or as water vapor from below the surface.”
