I love learning about all these random planets and how they’d kill me 😅 it truly is fascinating

[MuttonfudgeRacing]

What if the government actually did what they promised.

[TSierra]

No matter what the video is about, I always click on What If’s videos. This channel is so awesome!

[DiorJop]

astronomy videos are so good never stop posting these💯💯

[ZAYMANGAMESTUDIO]

This is one of my most favorite Astronomy channels I have ever met. Thank you so much.

[colinbrown]

Hearing about all these almost makes black holes seem like a drop in the ocean .💎

[pratiksha]

This was sooo good! I love knowing about the different planets out there. Would love to see another video like this on the “most astonishing planets in the universe.”

[homyce]

The thing that I truly find fascinating is how are scientist able to know so much about those distant planets!

4 years ago I subscribed to this channel when they had less than 500k .. I’m so happy they are growing ❤

[zoelovesdinosaurs]

I loved how you added 001 henry from stranger things in the upside down!

[juslewissr]

Thank you for also putting measurements in Fahrenheit and miles! I'm not great with Celsius and kilometers so it's a lot easier for me to grasp when measurements are put "both" ways.

[mauricegillespie]

I've been watching this for a long time now I love astronomy and everything else about the unknown but I love it 😁

[naimairfan]

Your videos are always amazing. I especially like pics and clips you add to make it easy to understand. It is hard work, you are amazing to do it.👍
Edit :thanks a lot for like.

[GudaGudaPaisen]

Fun fact: the safest place mentioned in the video also has the highest death rate.

[Faunatic]

Calling a surface temp of 1705° C "intense" is the biggest understatement I've heard in a while

[Veronica.A.]

Imagine the fragility of human life on any of these planets and compare that with the egoes that most people have, which is ironically bigger than the universe itself, lol.

[menelkir]

How about the other extremity of this list, like the most planet to visit?

[terrificm]

Such weird names for cute planets I would love to visit... well probably in the after life

[HI-ejrl]

*Suggestion*

1. What if Earth was size of the Jupiter

2. What if Venus and Earth switiched place

3. What if dinosaurs exists now

[jackbillington]

Can we all agree that earth is awesome? It's like we were meant to live here ;)
