During 1974 and 1975, Mariner 10 flew by Mercury three times and mapped about half of the planet's surface. Mariner 10 also discovered Mercury's thin atmosphere and detected its magnetic field. More recently, Messenger went into orbit around Mercury in 2011, and completed mapping of 100% of Mercury's surface in 2013.
What spacecrafts have been to mercury?
The first of two spacecraft to visit the planet was Mariner 10, which has mapped about 45% of the planet's surface from 1974 to 1975. The second is the MESSENGER spacecraft from NASA, which mapped another 30% during his trip to Mercury January 14, 2008. MESSENGER is now in orbit around Mercury to complete the mapping.
