Which Planet Would You Travel To?

Nate · 2007-08-13T21:28:47Z

I've been watching a lot of space specials lately on the Discovery channel, and they're fascinating but frustrating at the same time. Fascinating because of the potential of what humanity can achieve, but frustrating because of the short sightedness of government. Fortunately, the private market is once again stepping in where the government fails, and is making a lot of strides into spaceflight. So lets say that by 2050, it was possible for you to travel to any planet in the inner solar system (with the appropriate travel times of course). Which one would it be?

I should have voted for Planet Pat, but I voted Venus. It's so orange and pretty and I just have always wanted to visit it! I think Saturn would be coolest though.

I voted for Mars. I have to agree with the others, Saturn would be a beautiful planet to visit but I currently value my life...

Ceres for sure. How cool would it be to say you live on a dwarf-planet? Very cool.

Hmm... Ceres? Never heard of it. So that's where I'm going.

And because it's 2050, I'm taking my N60 storm along with me, among various other cool futuristic things. Fun!

I have no idea what Pat Buchanan L9 is, but i guess The Moon would be pretty cool.

Personally I would rather go deep sea diving. I don't understand why humans seem to be so obsessed with exploring space. We haven't even begun to scratch the surface of the worlds oceans. Wouldn't it be wiser to finish exploring the world we live in first? Before spending huge amounts of money to go explore space.

LOve me.

Mars , maybe i could live there. I think that would be cool, but i am totally open to new plants like the ones out of our solar system maybe we could find life like they in Contact or even cooler and like in Ender's Game.

I kinda agree with HonyFlame. I've seen a thing called Planet Earth and on one they went down to like, mega deep ocean. They found all these animals I didn't even know existed so...

We should definatly stop wasting our time with a satilite and know everything there is to know about our own planet first. The Pol has spoken!
