They're talking about whether or not Mars is closer to Earth than Venus is. Nothing to do with the Sun.

It actually depends on their position around the sun.

Jupiter I believe is the greatest for consisting almost purely of gases (the core being the only solid part). Imagine being like that. No-one could hurt you unless they put their hand right through you're chest, and I can't seem them doing that.

But then again, Venus has all the sulphuric acid. If someone tried to punch Venus, their hand would corrode.

Dear God, I really am aging backwards instead of forwards.

Amen to that! :D

It's all about Neptune and Uranus for me! (Though I'll choose Neptune for this purpose)

A lot of people like Mars. Marvin the Martian must be very proud.
I voted Saturn mostly because I like its ring of gas.

I like Neptune because of its deep blue color, and I also like Uranus because of its color and also the unique way it's alignment is structured in that it's on its side rather than upright. I was curious to find recently that the actual color of Uranus was more of a pale cyan rather than a deeper shade of cyan or teal.

No, only in pictures, like nearly every other planet. I mean it kind of just looks somewhat like the Moon. The name makes me think of a poisonous chemical in fish.

Ok that is not what Mercury looks like on the surface. That's just a photo of Mercury with enhanced colors to emphasize differences with the rocks on its surface.

Speaking of the moon, I find it pretty fascinating how we only have 1 moon(?), while other planets have multiple moons. I wonder what purposes the other moons have on other planets....

How come our moon gets called “the moon” it’s not even the biggest :pascontent:

Moons aren't known for having the biggest size, otherwise Jupiter and Saturn would be hard to see with all their moons in the way! :P

I really wish I could have made more than one vote. Uranus got no love over there :?
