... 2012 December 1 . Northern Mercury . ... But new results based on data from the Mercury orbiting MESSENGER spacecraft indicate that it does have substantial water ice in permanently shadowed regions within craters near its north pole. The possibility of ice on Mercury has been entertained for years, inspired by the discovery of radar bright, hence highly reflective, regions near the north pole. ... Farther from the pole the regions are concentrated on the north facing crater walls. ...
