It's not just the Darkness ones (Destiny)

Curious, I had forgotten that part. If my recollection is correct, mercury never was in a position to have a habitable atmosphere or liquid water. Early in the solar systems formation the sun would be hotter, further blistering Mercury and preventing any accumulation of water, plus lots of bombardment from stellar debris.

Unless it is an extra solar capture? It seems tough to assume it had a further orbit and migrated inward, even though Jupiter did that at one point due to resonance with Saturn.
