Solar System Tier List | Which is the ULTIMATE Planet?

In this solar system tier list, we explore each planet in the solar system and put them up in a head to head battle to decide which is the ULTIMATE planet.

We're taking the concept of a tier list to a whole new level. Some might say a universal level (sorry, not sorry).

Venus, we are told, has an atmosphere that is almost pure carbon dioxide and an extremely high surface temperature, 750 K, and this is allegedly due to the radiative greenhouse effect, RGHE. But the only apparent defense is, “Well, WHAT else could it BE?!” (besides/also molten core volcanism)

Well, what follows is the else it could be: (Q = U * A * ΔT) aka a contiguous participating media.

Venus is 70% of the Earth’s distance to the sun, its average solar constant/irradiance is about twice as intense as that of earth, 2, 602 W/m^2 as opposed to 1, 361 W/m^2.

But the albedo of Venus is 0.77 compared to 0.31 for the Earth - or - Venus 601.5 W/m^2 net ASR (absorbed solar radiation) compared to Earth 943.9 W/m^2 net ASR.

The Venusian atmosphere is 250 km thick as opposed to Earth’s at 100 km. Picture how hot you would get stacking 1.5 more blankets on your bed. RGHE’s got jack to do with it, it’s all Q = U * A * ΔT.

The thermal conductivity of carbon dioxide is about half that of air, 0.0146 W/m-K as opposed to 0.0240 W/m-K so it takes twice the ΔT/m to move the same kJ from surface to ToA.

Put the higher irradiance & albedo (lower Q = lower ΔT), thickness (greater thickness increases ΔT) and conductivity (lower conductivity raises ΔT) all together: 601.5/943.9 * 250/100 * 0.0240/0.0146 = 2.61.

So, Q = U * A * ΔT suggests that the Venusian ΔT would be 2.61 times greater than that of Earth. If the surface of the Earth is 15C/288K and ToA is effectively 0K then Earth ΔT = 288C. Venus ΔT would be 2.61 * 288 C = 748.8 K surface temperature.

All explained, no need for any S-B BB LWIR RGHE hocus pocus.

Simplest explanation for the observation.

its good that u chose jupiter bcs without jupiter we wouldnt exist!

"However, an unknown component at play gives Neptune its darker blue shades. Nothing like a bit of mystery."
Welp... we know now 😅

I agree with your ranking, Jupiter ist the GOAT 🐐
