A closer look.

This Mercury HD DLC (addon) contains high-resolution textures for Mercury. It improves the level of detail of the Mercurian surface compared to the default SpaceEngine installation. Credits: Surface color map combines the MESSENGER low incidence angle mosaic with a color map by DeviantArt user "FarGetaNik". Elevation map is a combination of a stereography-based map with one based on Mercury Orbiter Laser Altimeter data (used for high northern latitudes).
