Mercury (planet)
Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.
Mercury (Sol I) is the first planet in the Sol system. A small, rocky body, the surface temperatures on the side facing the sun become quite high due to the location of planet near the sun.
When performing a slingshot maneuver around the sun, the crew of the USS Enterprise turned away from the sun after passing Mercury. (TOS episode: "Tomorrow is Yesterday").
After an attack by the Totality on warp drive vessels, Starfleet Command relocated to Mercury where they established a provisional command at the Vostok Academy. (TOS novel: Captain's Glory)
