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

Body-crushing pressure. Toxic atmospheres. Unbearable temperatures. That's what would be in store if you visited other planets in our Solar System. But what other environmental hazards would you encounter? Which planets would be the safest and which would be the most dangerous? And how long could you survive on any of them?

Time zones on different planets would be a major headache

[ComicalRealm]

Shout out to the people who tested to live on every planet.

[bend]

Cameraman's doing an awesome job as always.

[mrimpossible]

I see what you did there, leaving out Pluto just because you'd be perfectly fine living on that planet.

Fun Fact: Venus used to be habitable when the sun was young. But after the sun expanded, Venus started to warm up.

I LOVE these types of videos where we find out what the inside of planets is like!! It gives an inside look into each planet!

[ibraheemhashmi]

This man is working extremely hard just to increase our knowledge about space..Mentioning that, this man deserves 100 times more love and is surely the most underrated youtube channel relating to space!

I think I'd take my chances on Jupiter. A year on Earth would be roughly over 5 months on Jupiter. Strong gravity, high winds, toxic storms and gases, intense soul crushing pressure, not to mention the occasional asteroid that comes plummeting down, it's the perfect Saiyan vacation!

That'd be one hell of a film franchise if they decided to make a man visit every planet

[ElvishRanger]

No love for Pluto? It will always be a planet to me.

[sburton]

Now lastly, Pluto. What if you spent a day on Pluto? Well unlike the gas giants, it does at least have a solid surface, but probably with the extreme cold, your life wouldn't last long there either.

[marcboland]

Thanks sm man. TripAdvisor let me down on this one, glad someone took the time to review all the planets they lived on

[claudiahilaire]

Thank you What If for helping my son to pass his science test! You’re the best

[Kenya.Kay.MBA...]

Love that this video is not an hour long, gets straight to the point.

[mayah]

WOW I randomly thought about this topic and then I went to YouTube and there’s a whole video about it posted a couple days ago yay perfect timing thank you so much!!! Hahaha

[nirajwankhede]

The more I see such videos, the more I get intrigued about the mysteries of the universe😍

[gayathrykrish]

Stopping a while on earth for some fresh air gave me back to home feeling.

[wardoldenhuis]

I think the names of the planet are unique and i Realy appreciate the effort and that you can explain things soooo clearly its Realy helpful and nice

[ralphbathan]

I tried hard not to think of anything other than a planet when you said, Uranus, I was succeeding, but eventually failed when you said those stinking gases 😅

[taylerkzz]

Shout out to the cameraman for showing us those magnificent venus clouds!
