What If You Spent a Day on Every Planet in Our Solar System?

What If You Spent a Day on Every Planet in Our Solar System?

Body-crushing pressure. Toxic conditions. Temperatures are unbearable. That is what was expected of you if you visit other planets in our solar system. Before you start your journey through the Solar System, you have to pack a water bottle. Earth is the only planet known for its existence fixed bodies of water are not liquid on his face. So if you pack enough, maybe you can survive in a few days almost anywhere, right? Well, I'm sorry to say, I have bad news for you. Let's start by visiting Mercury, the smallest planet in the Solar System. This rocky planet, full of crater slightly larger than our Moon. It is also located very close to the Sun. within a distance of 58 million km (36 million mi).

Or a day in Mercury equals 59 days in the earth, your journey will not stay anywhere near that long. Because of this little turning around, you can live in a sunny place, when the temperature reaches 430 ° C (800 ° F). Or maybe you don't mean the dark side, when temperatures drop to 180 ° C (-290 ° F). Your best bet would be to find a cozy place somewhere in the middle. But with an atmosphere especially composed of oxygen, sodium, hydrogen, helium and potassium, good luck breathing too long. Even in this middle ground, you would probably not survive more than two minutes.

All right, let's see what the day might be like on the second planet from the Sun, Venus. You should expect a warm welcome because higher temperatures burn pipes at 475 ° C (900 ° F). And one day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days.  Oops, it's hot here. Unless you have an unusually strong spacecraft, you couldn't get too close to the face. And even if you did, you would not last long. Venus has a thick and toxic atmosphere with 154,000 times more carbon than Earth's atmosphere. It is also covered with yellow sulfuric acid clouds. Not to mention the Venusian atmosphere it is the result of runaway greenhouse. Between toxins and hot heat until sweet, you would not survive one moment on Venus. Now, let's jump to Mars. Unless you want to stop coming back to Earth to get a little fresh air.

On Mars, you will receive comfort in just over 24 hours a day. You would not find it comfortable carbon dioxide, argon, nitrogen and a small amount of oxygen and water vapor. Mars' face is cold, at a temperature of -62 ° C (-80 ° F). Combine low temperatures in a breath of fresh air, and you would not survive more than a few minutes here with you. On the next planet, you would not be able to reach the top. This is because there is no one in the gas engine, Jupiter. This planet is twice as big like all other planets in our Solar System combined. And its atmosphere is mainly hydrogen, helium and cold, cloudy air ammonia and water. Jupiter may be huge, but it rotates fast.

One day lasts only 10 hours on Earth. And because it is so fast, The Jupiter atmosphere has powerful jet streams. In addition, the Great Red Spot that is actually a greater storm than the Earth. If you fall to the ground, you can enter space at a top speed of 49 km / s (30 mi / s). And as you kept falling, the atmosphere would be dense and chaotic. You may feel like hitting a wall again. If you have 692 km (430 mi) ground, you would experience higher levels of stress than you do under the Mariana Trench, a deep place on Earth. If the pressure did not kill you, the temperature, average -145 ° C (-229 ° F), I certainly would. You could not live on Jupiter for one second. Now, if you keep going to Saturn, you will find another gaseous giant out of place. And, like Jupiter, a day that lasts about 10.7 hours. Here you would face powerful, deadly spirits reaches 1,800 km / h (1,118 mph). By inhaled air made of hydrogen and helium, Saturn cannot support life.  Maybe you can have more luck in one of its months. Like Titan or Enceladus. These two months have internal seas, which may support life. We move on to the first glacier in our solar system. It is not surprising here that it also has a breathless atmosphere hydrogen, helium and methane, which gives the planet its blue-green signature color and the smell of rotten eggs. There are other rare dangers in Uranus you have to be prepared, as subtle X-ray flares and a deadly diamond rain.

You heard that well. Diamonds are highly compressed carbon atoms the rain comes from the sky. But do not worry about that. Great pressure on the planet he can kill you in less than a second. All right, last time, A dark, cold planet with strong winds as strong as 2,000 km / h (1,200 mph). That speed is faster than the speed of a fighter jet. So if pressure does not kill you, those Supersonic spirits can probably do tricks. A day in Neptune would take Earth 16 hours. But your life there would not take a moment. OK, too. So if it is not clear,

Earth would be the only planet you would like to visit anytime soon. Just about anywhere, you can look forward to the deadly cocktail of high pressure and toxic gas. That apart from splitting Mars, building a second human home within the Solar System .. On Mars, you will receive comfort in just over 24 hours a day.
