Over half the time Venus is not the nearest planet to Earth; Mercury is. In fact, the scientists have crunched the numbers and found that on average, Mercury is the closest planet not only to Earth but to every other planet in the solar system as well.

It shouldn't matter that Mars is only closer than Mercury every 26 months. That's still its closest point to us, as that's how you're measuring Mercury. So Mars is actually second closest to earth.

True. Venus is closest..... at its closest. Mars is 2nd. On average Mercury is closer than either . So not even 2nd according to that. On average its closer than Mars or Venus. But at its closest.....it's 3rd.

They got their numbers wrong. The closest approaches for Mercury, Venus and Mars in respect to the Earth are 27 million miles, 25 million miles, and 34 million miles respectively. For some reason they used Mercury's average distance from the Earth instead of its closest approach distance. While there are times when Mars is closer to Earth then Mercury, so long as you use the same metrics for all three planets, then they are correct by accident. During closest approach, Mercury is closer to Earth than Mars. During maximum separation, Mercury is closer to Earth than Mars. On average, Mercury is closer to Earth than Mars. At times, however, Mars is closer to Earth than Mercury since each planet has its own orbit and are independent of each other.

Distance. Distance is the issue. It takes time to travel distances, and they are pretty far away.

I've seen all the pictures and videos, but it took the VR experience of standing next to and exploring around the Saturn V to get me to the realization that in the 1960s we flew skyscrapers into outer space. Awesome.

Great video and information !

Amazing video👍

Using your logic… Mercury is the closest planet to Earth as it spends more time closer to Earth than Earth does to Venus. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Lovely! Great vid. Hats off to the ladies of 18th century who sew with the unbelievable skill. My respects to all the inventors. Godspeed!💫🕉️

Main problem with mars is ... there is no ready technology to stay outside magnetosphere of earth... wd still dont know how they did it in apollo missions becase technical logs s lost nd kubick doesn talk sbout it 😅

The Mars mission would be a one way trip

I wonder if Jupiter wasn't around if the Moons in orbit now would've become planets on there own orbit around the Sun?

We probably wouldn't be here. Jupiter is a great protector.

Basically to travel to Mars we really need better engines to travel around space. Something like an ion engine or something like this that can be upscaled to a much larger ship and then you need a magnetosphere to surround your ship so you don’t die in trip if you’re hit by a mass coronal ejection from the sun comes your way.

I wonder if it would be possible to use cosmic Kite to block part of sunlight on Venus and Mercury, to provide more earth like temperatures on these planets and help us to terraform them. 🤔

@thekingofkingsrp

You would need to figure out how to remove a lot of co2 and other gases from venus atmosphere. And mercury has such little atmosphere that blocking the sun would cause freezing Temps like the night side.

If we had the technology to do that then we wouldn't need to terraform any other planets, We would have everything we need already.

Mercury is actually the closest planet to Earth. This is a well known fact: Physics Today: "Venus is not Earth’s closest neighbor" (12 March 2019) Popular Mechanics: "What’s the Closest Planet to Earth? Surprise, It’s Mercury" (20 January 2023)

Build some of those systems they are proposing to go to Alpha Centauri and try it to go to Mars much quicker and cheaper. Also, building a massive base in space or on the moon could help with future missions to take off from there.

Let's get to the moon first then go from there😮

Not missing much. The planet is inhabited a bunch of crazy apelike creatures .

When you get to the ISS space station in LEO orbit, will the department of redundancy department require you to type your PIN number into an ATM machine?

One because it’s far away and it is in orbit. Planning for an interception considering gravity speed and the possibility of several course changes you would have to really do a lot of math and have the ability to provide fuel for acceleration deceleration and orbit then return. Yup just those few are quite profound!

28:01 - wrong ino here . alisto isn't covered by active volcanos, but impact cratters . Io is the satelite covered by active volcanoes.

Anyone else see the face at 31:18?

Tldr: planets are light-years away, rockets cost alot of money and humans need alot to stay alive.

Notice that Uranus didn't make the difficult list. It's soooo easy

Interrupting my video with an ad, only makes me hate the product being advertised.

Mercury is the closest planet to Earth MOST of the time, Venus becomes the closest very rarely and only for a brief time. Why? Because Earth and Venus are on opposite sides of the sun making Mercury the closest planet to Earth MOST of the time

It is interesting that, today, we couldn't land on the Moon, even if we wanted to. So, did we ever land on the Moon?

Why ignore StarShip??

Because we're spinning fast, they're spinning fast, and they are far.

Venus must be dead easy to reach!😂

What was that? Then I fell asleep, I need to watch Again

Not worried about it

It’s actually Mercury which is the closest planet to Earth by average distance.

0:50 Well done. You really need to check your numbers. The closest approach for Earth and Venus is 25 million miles. You got this one correct. The average distance is 62 million miles. The closest approach for Earth and Mercury is 27 million miles, not 48 million. 48 million miles is the average distance. The closest approach between Earth and Mars is 34 million miles. The 55 million figure is for kilometers. The average distance is 140 million miles. Perihelion has nothing to do with the distance from one planet to another. Perihelion is the point at which a body is closest to the sun and that distance is about 128 million miles. The term to describe the closest approach between two planets or other astronomical bodies is the unusually pragmatic "closest approach". I guess "perihelion" sounded more scientific or something.

Venus is more habitable than Mars for one simple reason: Venus has a magnetosphere and Mars does not.

They are not that difficult to reach. However, since it would take so long for human to get there, there's no much point to try .

What is this "mile you speak of?

i think if a person went to mars and returned, we would age alot faster then what we would if we went to the moon or stayed on the space station for 6 months

SCHWAAYYYYYY!!! I thought the solar winds would play a factor in Mercury being hard to reach. That also, perhaps that its gravitational pull would be hard for craft to latch on to its orbit

Actually the closest planet to earth is mercury (counsidering the average distance to travel between the two mercury is closer to the earth than both Venus and Mars.

@@DanielWatson-vv7cd BTW, I don't disagree with you in principle. I was just responding to your original post of why would we want to do it. It is part of the human experience to explore. There is another reason. Because we are systematically destroying the only planet we live on. Going to Mars for example, can help us potentially learn about the evolution of that planet to educate ourselves on our own (like what happened to the magnetic field and the atmosphere and water). We should be paying attention to the effects man has on his own environment in order to get smarter about how to preserve it. There are those in power now who don't want us to put Earth observing instruments in space to better understand our climate, how its changing, and the effect man is having on it. These people are being fed misinformation by egregious polluters of own own planet who don't seem to understand that all the money in the world now will not help their future progeny to survive in a world that will no longer support life.

16:00 say what?

The answer is money!

Men and women inside prison live in similar situations with confinement and stressful situation. So if we can get through that going to mars should be fine it's not like that there going to be away for 20 30 40 years in a tin can aluminum foil can.😅

I thought Uranis would be the hardest plant to reach.

Humans are far to fragile to travel those distances. No way we could survive for years cut off from the earth. The men of Apollo 13 had it easy compared to anything going to other planets. It only takes 3 days to get to the moon. It takes years to go to planet. You would have to take everything you need to last that long and the extra fuel . The ship would have to be huge. No one would want to pay for a mission like that.

The only realistic way to get to Mars is to produce the fuel on the Moon and launch from there.

I stopped watching after a few seconds. Mercury is the closest planet to earth, not the second closest. Because of a rapid orbit, on average, it's the closest planet to earth most often. Bonus fun fact Mercury is the closest planet to the sun, earth, Venus, and Mars more often than any other planet.

It's hard to get there because we don't know how to leave earth, and probably can't

It's so hard to get there because we have not even been to the moon yet

It is a shame bc I like their space content but I avoid this channel. Every time I give them a chance it is disappointing, I don't think they don't know what they're talking about

What BL🤯WS MY MIND!!! Is the math of the distance between us and Mars. Earth and the moon... in that distance, you can fit ALL THE PLANETS of the solar system side by side in that space!! So multiplying that and receiving a number as to the distance between us and our neighbor!!! Absolutely insane!! To achieve this, we would have to send multiple craft with the materials the crew would need for supplies and fuel to return. Land those there and have them waiting for them to give and do al the scientific studies and observations. Wow!!!! What it would be like to stand on another planet and just SEE THE SUN!!! 1st time I saw the sun from Mars... I ended up writing a song. To see the sun and to see the earth as well!!!! Absolutely amazing is what it would be! Can you IMAGINE WHATBIT WOULD BE LUKE FLYING BACK TI THE EARTH!?!? After all the time away! To get back and be able to just breathe and see the blue skies and be able to get inactive warm pool of water! The future holds great things for space exploration!!! It sucks im already 38!
