Mapping Mercury: BepiColombo's 30-minute flyby reveals magnetic mysteries ahead of 2026 orbit

- By Nuadox Crew -

During its June 2023 flyby of Mercury, ESA and JAXA's BepiColombo mission mapped the planet's magnetic landscape in just 30 minutes.

Mercury, like Earth, has a magnetic field, although much weaker, which forms a magnetosphere that interacts strongly with the Sun's solar wind due to Mercury's close proximity. The flyby enabled the mission to preview its future scientific work, sampling particles and creating a detailed map of Mercury's magnetosphere.

Lina Hadid, a scientist involved in the project, used data from the Mercury Plasma Particle Experiment to identify key structures such as shock boundaries, plasma sheets, and turbulent plasma regions. Surprising observations included hot ions trapped near the equator, possibly forming a ring current, a phenomenon that is still debated. The flyby also allowed scientists to detect ions like oxygen, sodium, and potassium, likely ejected from the planet's surface.

These preliminary findings highlight the potential for new discoveries when BepiColombo reaches Mercury's orbit in 2026. The dual orbiters, equipped with complimentary instruments, will offer a more complete understanding of the planet’s magnetic and plasma environment over time.
