The Mercurian

People have thought of the Moon as a place to visit. People have thought of Mars to colonize but what happened to Mercury? Mercury, messenger of the gods, the sunly (Yeah, thats an actual word) of the planets, the smallest of all. Earth has just recently set foot on Mars and the Moon and have made colonies there since 2020. It is 2030, and NASA is going to try something new, colonize the alien (Unreconized) planet of Mercury. Now Dalton Jones, a 20 years old university student is to be sent into a mission of death to retrieve information on the Planets progression over the three decades.
