From the early 60's thru to mid 70's school years thru to now, I've witnessed the evolution of what I call High Layman information regarding Science (Mercury). My opinion with a Dollar added will get you a 2nd day Doughnut at the Deli, with that said I think Mercury was a Neptune type gas semi-giant that's had all it's upper gas and liquid atmosphere blowtorched off. We had a Hot Semi-Jupiter but not any more.

Sorry, but that's not the case. At 0.4 AU, Mercury is still far enough away from the Sun that evaporation would take a long, long time. So much time, that the amount of craters we see on it's surface wouldn't match with the amount of craters that we'd expect to see. It'd be noticably off. Of course that's not even mentioning the fact that hydrogen and helium were a very sparse gas in the inner solar system, making Mercury - closest to the Sun and least massive planet in the inner solar system - at the lowest chance of ever developing into any form of gas giant.

Your reaction is basically ''lol you're lying'' without providing an objection to explain to me why i could be wrong. The distribution of gas and dust in the early solar system is a researched topic, and the fact that you're clueless about it doesn't mean that science is clueless about it. In case you want me to tell you more about early solar system research, or ''ancient alien scrolls'' as you like to call it; the reason of the abscense of hydrogen and helium in the inner solar system is because of the sun's radiation. The outward force from the solar radiation pushed out the lighter elements to further distances from the sun, where the solar radiation was less extreme, leaving heavier atoms like iron and silicate behind. That's how we got the heavy and dense terrestrial planets in the inner solar system, and less dense gas planets further from the Sun.

I have an unrelated question for anyone who sees this: if space is expanding faster than light can travel, how is it JWST discovered a galaxy that is deemed to have formed only 700 million years after the Big Bang? Shouldn’t those young galaxies be further out than the observable universe?

The galaxy is for sure, but the light coming from it is not. That light spent all its time traveling to us while the galaxy it came from is going the other way. Hope this makes sense ❤
