Does the Sun Rise Twice a Day on Mercury?

No. Mercury rotates very slowly—one rotation takes about 59 Earth days. Consequently, the Sun rises and sets only once every 59 Earth days, not twice a day. A single solar day (sunrise to sunrise) on Mercury lasts about 176 Earth days because of its orbital motion.
