Orbit: On March 18, 2011, MESSENGER became the first spacecraft to enter orbit around Mercury successfully.

First Image: On March 29, 2011, at 5:20 a.m. EDT, the spacecraft captured this image, marking the first-ever photograph taken from a Mercury orbit. Over the next six hours, it captured an additional 363 images.
