  • $\begingroup$ Mercury doesn't have an "ice side," It's not 1:1 tidally-locked to the sun, the spin-orbit resonance on Mercury is 3:2, with its 55-earth-day sidereal rotation period and 88-earth-day sidereal orbital period resulting in a 176-earth-day-long solar day for points on its surface. $\endgroup$
