Guys,
Mercury can't be in the game because it's the hottest planet in the solar system. It basically touches the Sun's CMEs and we would all be dead immediately due to radiation and heat. Why do people want to go to a molten rock and fight the vex? These things blow my mind.
Why do people keep saying VENUS is hotter than Mercury? You guys need to learn the order of the planets.

Venus is hotter. Greenhouse gasses on the planet trap insane amounts of sunlight, making the surface ridiculously hot. Even the coldest part of the planet is over 700°F. (400°C) It rains sulfuric acid and is genuinely not a very nice vacation spot. So I'd choose a different planet. Distance to the sun is not the only factor when it comes to temperature. Mercury can actually reach temperatures as low as -280°F. (-173°C) because of it's lack of atmosphere, the heat cannot be retained and while the surface is facing away from the sun, it gets frigid. I've been obsessed with space my entire life so yeah. [spoiler]*The More You Know*[/spoiler]
