science Favorite planet (besides this one) in the solar system?

[DivineDefender1000 71,389]

Everyone knows how wonderful and amazing this blue planet of ours is, but which of the other 8 (Yes, I am including Pluto) planets is your favorite?

Saturn is my favorite planet in the solar system!

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,982]

The almight Jupiter is my favorite. It is a sheer behemoth in size, having storms that dwarf the entire Earth. It's atmospheric structure makes for some amazing views. Plus, this is the planet I have been able to see best through my fairly inexpensive telescope. :3 

This isn't my image obviously but just look!

What an incredible looking object. One that makes us seem basically nonexistent and holds power inside it that we can only fantasize about.

[MangoFoalix 25,047]

Mine is probably Neptune. I like the cool blue color of it.

[Lord Valtasar 12,704]

Saturn, nothing beats a plannet with a ring around it, and Saturn has the best/most visible one

[PoisonClaw 8,166]

Pluto, the often forgotten planet!

[Lucky Bolt 35,106]

Jupiter has always been my favorite! 

[SharpWit 2,778]

Venus. Named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, but destroys pretty much everything we send its way. Plus you can spot it pretty easily in the night sky.

[O-78 28,612]

Neptune, it's easily the prettiest! I know Saturn has all those rings, but come on, you can't beat this blue beauty!

[Electrified Airstream 18,552]

Mars, because it probably holds the best prospects for a human colony.

[Kronos the Revenant 1,971]

Neptune because the methane-rich atmosphere there makes for raining diamonds. Imagine bringing the largest container ever and an atmosphere condenser and collecting a crap ton of diamonds.

Is your name Jerry Smith?

I like the red planet, Mars. If Elon Musk asks me nicely, I'll go with him when he goes!

I love this thread! Saturn is my favorite planet.  

@Kyoshi and @Lucky Bolt, Jupiter reveals different cloud structures when viewed in the methane absorption band at 889nm.  Some Methane images of Jupiter and Saturn I took last summer with the 16" telescope:

Roman god of the sea...planet...death. It's the prettiest--I have to agree with some ppl here. 

[Treeglow Flicker 13,976]

Pluto. Because it knows what it is like to be excluded!

[Frostgage 7,977]

Mercury! I find it so interesting how the planet closest to the sun can also get freezing cold

Absolutely Pluto. Somehow that planet reminds about my features pretty well - distant, mystic and bit likely humble. Also i'm rather slow in many of my actions, referring to planet's long orbital period (248 years)

[DixonTheAdversary 1,634]

I quite like the ice giants, Neptune and Uranus.

[CypherHoof 26,483]

Jupiter - with its moons, it is almost a solar system in its own right (the radiation there is a bit of a killer though, and it's a shame about the Channel A transmissions from Huygens...)

[Totally Nyx 36,290]

I'm all about Pluto, the unwanted planet. They tried to banish it from planetary status, but that's not how these things work. It's a fighter, it's gonna stick with us, and it's got my full support.

[Celtore 2,770]

Definitely Saturn. I mostly like looking at star clusters through my telescope, but when I go scanning the sky for planets, Saturn is the planet that just jumps out at you.

I also feel like Venus is a fairly underappreciated planet with it's volcanous landscape, boiling hot surface and dense, toxic atmosphere.

[BritishBrony2012 838]

Between Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto

[SparklingSwirls 21,375]

Neptune of course, and then maybe Uranus since it's sideways; what could have possibly knocked it over?  

[Patty Thundersnow 4,233]

I've got favorites for each type of planet.

Favorite rocky planet (excluding Earth) - Venus
Favorite Gas Giant - Saturn, Neptune
Favorite minor/dwarf planet - Pluto, Eris, Ceres

[Meson Bolt 2,649]

I mean, Saturn has always been my favorite. I love everything about Saturn... the hydrogen/helium atmosphere, the rings, the 62 moons, the fact that its gravity is almost the same as Earth's...

I LOVE Saturn. It's just a pretty planet to look at.

[The Historian 516]

Probably Saturn, though all of the gas and ice giants are fascinating.
