Tell that to the Dinosaurs

Saturn gets my vote as it sounds the closets thing to a Saturday. No doubt they have more than one Saturday in their week.

Venus, it's the most interesting planet by far. Spacecraft landing on Venus didn't even need a parachute or engines, the atmosphere did all the work.

Can Earths evil twin be trusted though

Glad Mercury got a vote, all on its own at the front getting blasted by the Sun all the time

Whats the name of the planet that some astrologists believe could be an Earth 2? Its not Mars

c_man · 25-07-2013 02:50PM

Neptune. It's so amazing to look at, all those blues. Goes well with a smoke.

Gliese 259 (something like that).

Jupiter, fascinating planet, huge, powerful, extremely violent & has a potentially habitable moon in Europa. Also thanks to the intensity of its gravity we avoid a large volume of asteroids which would probably have wiped us by now

I dunno man.. −160 °C is a bit chilly never mind the deadly radiation! Would be nice to find out whats under the Ice tho, if there's any life in the ocean.

Saturn looks amazing. If we were trying to attract alien tourists to our solar system Saturn would be all over the advertisements.

Finding out whats under the Europan ice should be made a priority by the various space agencies. Feck Mars!

Yeah Mars is gay... unless it turns out it supported sophisticated life before it lost its atmosphere that would be cool.. imagine if they found a load of castles or Martian dinosaurs.. faack space is cool!

Jupiter is actually likely a failed star.

I'm a Venus fan as well. Loads of volcanoes spitting sulphur and carbon, a hell like atmosphere.

Plus a year is only 225 days so Christmas would come quicker each year.

I love the life sized paper mache model of planet Earth that the Brain made as his only successful attempt at taking over the world

Wait, that's the one we're all on now!!

I miss real Earth

Duckworth_Luas · 25-07-2013 04:02PM

The Moon, although if you fold a piece of paper enough times you'll go to the Moon and catch AIDS!

Jupiter for me. One of the first planets that I spotted in the night sky. Pretty cool planet: any bigger and it would have turned into a star, and would have been a second sun in the sky to us. It was by observing one of it's moons that gave rise to the idea that light had a finite speed.

sungear · 25-07-2013 04:15PM

Nibiru or Endor, cant decide

Think you might have picked up something wrong somewhere... there are lots of planets bigger than Jupiter that haven't turned into stars. Up to 20 times larger just to be considered a brown dwarf.

Jupiter for me, its bleeding massive.
It has that giant red spot which is actually a storm thats been raging for centuries.
First object viewed in space that had other objects orbiting it, further understanding our place in the universe.
Complex series of moons with active volcanos and possibly a liquid ocean.
We got to view a series of comets collide with it in 1993
2001 A Space Odessey was set there.

Whats yours?

No Uranus jokes please

Saturn, because if you could build a celestial bath tub big enough and filled just with water, Saturn would float in it.

A floating planet, awesome.

Spike Witwicky · 25-07-2013 07:49PM

Risa for the lovin or Q'onos for the fightin

If i'm stuck in our solar system i say Io, one of Jupiters moons. It has a suspected ocean under its frozen mantle. And just maybe, life.

Saturn. How could you not love that planet with its amazing rings. Though all the gas giants have them, none as majestic. And all those moons! Each more interesting than the last. Titan is my favourite moon.

NuckingFacker · 25-07-2013 08:12PM

Zanussi.

I also like B79835, but the name's a stumbling block in conversation.
