    If you had the opportunity to go to another planet and start over there with a group of people, would you?

    Inb4 "yeah if its with hot girls I can make pregnant" or other virgin responses:comeon:

    Nah you'd have to wear sophisticated space suits and breathing equipment and plus if you're not within a structure that makes its own gravitational force you'd have to get used to that too or just stay inside all the time

    If I had nothing left for me on Earth then yes.

    The thought of going to another planet always excites me. Different gravity levels and uncanny exploration would be amazing. f--- those planet-sized dust storms though.

    Are the storms bad on Mars? Thought that was usually gas giants that had unimaginable tornadoes and such

    h--- yes I would

    My dream has always been to explore the universe, so while that will never be possible, living on another planet is the next best thing

    Mars basically has no atmosphere. No atmosphere means lack of atmospheric pressure. Storms can only get so big on Earth because our atmosphere keeps things pressurized. With Mars however, if I kicked up a pile of sand it could potentially become a dust storm.

    Mars has massive dust storms

    Gas giants are filled with storms, but we couldnt live on one unless it was on some form of floating city like cloud city

    I understand this. I was mainly saying that in the sense that if I went I probably wouldn't want to come back.

    Yeah I know I was joking, still blows my mind that science adds up though. Obviously not the timewarp bookshelf thing but the rest
