Just sharing this in the case you have not seen what I wrote in the chat. It is most likely to be meant Mercury

It could be Mercury since it's the closest planet to the Sun, and it would be gravitationally locked just like the moon

I just searched and it appears that the correct term would be "Tidally Locked"

Uranus doesn’t really have a day night cycle in the same way that Earth does. It’s on channel tilt is so extreme that on most of the planet the seasonal cycle is equivalent to the day night cycle, when it’s winter it’s night time and when it’s summer it’s daytime, the only time zone experience somewhat normal daylight things would be in the spring and fall, briefly. Or at least one I’ve heard.

Ohio dr. Sans do you mean tidally locked?

In that case no planet in our solar system is tidally locked to the sun

The most planet that could be given this feature is mercury though it is locked only in a 2:3 resonance, rotating 3 times every 2 orbits

Oh! A level 16 member i feel like a kid now
