Experts including Paul Byrne at Washington University and Hannes Bernhardt at University of Maryland affirm the study's methodology and significance. Byrne expressed confidence the results will hold and advance understanding of Mercury's geology; Bernhardt noted that Mercury offers lessons about formation and evolution of rocky bodies like Earth.
“If their results hold—and I'm confident they will—then we'll have taken a step further in investigating planets we can't yet visit in person.”
