Mercury is almost perfectly tidally locked to the Sun. That’s why there is such a dramatic temperature gradient. Has nothing to do with atmosphere, because in our sense of the word it hasn’t got any.

An individual point on Mercury has “no day and night.”

Mercury is gravitational locked to the sun so it presents the same face to the sun constantly. Mercury has a sun side and a dark side. The sun side is hot as hell and the dark side makes the antarctic seem a tropical paradise.

Our moon is also gravitational locked to the earth.
