Want to go to Mercury?

On Monday NASA’s Messenger will approach Mercury in order to explore its surface and send over 2,000 photos back to earth. Last time thats something similar happened it was 34 years ago (how did they manage that back then?) when NASA’s Mariner 10 passed by that neighborhood and gave us the picture above.
I am certain that when these images arrive back to Earth, we are going to hear again a lot of conspiracy theories about secret caves, underground civilizations and giant squids. The first aim of this mission is to get Messenger in orbit around Mercury by 2011!
The most recent event of alien conspiracy that mankind discovered was this hole on Mars surface which was said to be the route to its secret underground civilization.
In the end this was proved to be nothing more than a small cavity with an odd shadow when the photograph was taken.
