If you could visit any planet, which one would you choose and why? Answer here and come back to respond to at least 2 classmates. Remember your netiquette and discussion board rules!

If I could visit a planet, I would visit Saturn because the planet itself hasn't yet been closely observed through its thick atmosphere and it would be interesting to see what it's actually like there. Also, I would like to see Saturn's rings up close.

If I could visit any planet I would visit Mars because its atmosphere is most similar to Earth's. Mars is said to be able to hold forms of life from soil and water on the planet. The climate is not extremely hot or cold and tolerable. Finally, similar to earth, the amount of sunlight received creates a similar day/ night pattern.

I think the fact that Saturn has more to be explored is a great reason why we should visit. The more you know, the better.

If I could visit any planet in the solar system I would Jupiter because I am very curious if it has any land under all that gas.
I am also interested in seeing what the giant red storm on Jupiter is like (Probably very Fun).
I would also be very famous for going to Jupiter and surviving.

If i had to pick a planet to visit i would choose Jupiter because of its enticing Red Spot. Also the fact that there's so many thing we don;t know about it yet; it'd be really cool to discover something about it.

I do agree with why would you would visit because of the habitability and that it's atmosphere is close to ours but Mars has been searched and we've already discovered a ton about it. I would want to visit somewhere where i'm able to see things that no one else has seen.

Saturn is a beautiful planet; it's my second favorite. It's rings are amazing and it would be very interesting to be able to study.

If I could visit any planet I would visit Mars since there might be a chance of life from the information we have gathered from rovers. The atmosphere is somewhat similar to Earth's and isn't too far from Earth to visit it.

If I could visit any planet I would visit Mars to visit Mount Olympus.

Mars would be a great choice to visit because of it's similarities with Earth. Visiting Mars is likely very important to our future.

I do agree with how interesting Jupiter is. No one knows what the planet is like underneath its gas which makes it very interesting. I don't think i'd be focused on becoming famous though or thinking that going into a massive storm would be very fun. Im not trying to die.

Saturn would be a nice planet to visit the rings would be an amazing view up close as well as the planet being so much bigger than Earth

I agree with you that the next planet to be explored should be mars because of the chance of life on another planet. Earth itself is already amazing as to the forms of life it could hold, imagine having that form of life somewhere else, a new world, or even a chance to "start over"

If I could visit any planet, I would want to visit Neptune. I want to see the gas/ice giant up close and see its blue hue in person. I think it would also be cool because we have not visited Neptune except with voyager one so I think there would be a lot to learn about the planet.

I would like to see how big Saturns rings are up close in comparison to how we view it from Earth

If i could visit any planet, i thing that i would like to go visit Pluto. Because of New Horizons trip to Pluto and the pictures it took. For the longs time we thought that Pluto was a small cold dead world. But thanks to the pictures taken by New Horizons. We can see that Pluto is very much alive and holds many secrets that yet to be discovered.

If I could visit any planet, I would visit Uranus. I think Uranus is a very unique because its the only planet that spins sideways on its axis. (Its axis is perpendicular to the sun.) It also has a very mesmerizing blue grey color. However, 
I wouldn't like to visit for very long because its so cold there (its the 7th planet from the sun). Overall, it would be interesting to visit a planet that rotated on its side :).~Hannah

That is very interesting! Mars seems like a cool place to visit but we know so much about it already so it wouldn't be my first choice but its still a good one.

If i could visit any planet i would visit Saturn because I think the size compared to the other planets is so cool and because there isn't much information about it, I think it would such a interesting planet to know about.

I agree! The rings are beautiful, I think its amazing how water and ice orbits Saturn to make up the rings.

If i could visit any planet i would visit Mars because it is similar to earth we live on so, it wouldn't be much different.

If I could visit any planet in our solar system I'd visit Venus. I would visit Venus because no one has been inside Venus and the environment is so harsh that everything would just melt in seconds. I'd like to see what actually goes on inside Venus atmosphere and how the weather reacts to one other, which makes Venus so deadly.

I completely agree! But wouldn't it be more interesting to go somewhere that is unlike Earth?

i completely agree there is so much more to learn about Venus. Going to see a different planet and there atmosphere would be very cool

If I could visit any planet, it would be Uranus because of the unique axial tilt and rotation. Uranus' seasons are also one of the main reasons why I picked this planet. I would love to be there for the vernal equinox in 2049.

I agree I think it would be so cool to be able to invent something suitable for life on Venus and actually see the conditions.

I think that it would be cool, but isn't Venus Earths evil twin?

I agree, I would love to see if we could start a civilization on Mars to help with the Earths growing population.

I would visit Jupiter because it being the largest planet in the solar system. All of the other planets could fit into it easily. It also a raging red storm that lasts for roughly every 350 years or so.

If I could visit any planet I would Uranus because I want to know if I could see the rings from the ground and see how much different it is from earth.
