Mercury is the hottest planet in the solar system.

the verdict
REFUTED
the evidence says no
Recorded sources
1 source for · 2 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that mercury is the hottest planet in the solar system?

No. Two reference sources state directly that Mercury is not the hottest planet, with Venus being hotter because of its greenhouse effect. One archive item only calls Mercury 'one of the hottest planets,' which does not support the superlative claim.
