Crazy pressure, toxic atmosphere and unbearable temperatures are waiting for tourists on the planets of the solar system. But what other environmental dangers you will encounter? Which planets will be the safest and which are the most dangerous? And how long can you survive on any of them?

Before you go on a trip through the solar system, you should take a bottle of water with you. Earth is the only well -known planet on the surface of which there are constantly water bodies with liquid water. But even a sufficient amount of food does not guarantee that you will return alive and unharmed.

Let's start by visiting Mercury, the smallest planet in the solar system. This rocky, dotted with craters of the planet is only a little larger than our moon. And it is located very close to the sun at a distance of 58 million km. Despite the fact that the day in Mercury is about 59 days on Earth, your journey will not last and close for so long.

Due to the very slow rotation of Mercury, the chances to land on its daytime side are very large, and there the temperature reaches 430 ° C.

Another problem is that the temperature on the night side drops to -180 ° C.

The best place for landing will be a cozy place somewhere in the middle. But do not forget that the atmosphere in Mercury consists of their oxygen, sodium, hydrogen, helium and potassium, so it is unlikely that tourists will last more than two minutes.

Let's see how the day on the outfit from the sun will look like, Venus. A very warm welcome awaits you, because the surface temperature is 475 ° C. And one day on Venus lasts 243 earthly days. If you do not have an incredibly strong spaceship, you cannot get too close to the surface. And even if you did it, you would not last a very long time.

Venus has a dense and toxic atmosphere, in which 154,000 times more carbon than in the Earth's atmosphere. And it is shrouded in yellowish clouds of sulfuric acid. We can say that the atmosphere of Venus is an uncontrollable greenhouse effect. Due to the toxicity and the heat that burns you to the ground, you will not survive and for a second on the planet.

Now you can go to Mars. Unless you want to return to Earth to make a couple of sips of fresh air. There will be a fairly comfortable day on Mars, which lasts a little more than 24 hours. But the air on the Red Planet will no longer be so comfortable, since the atmosphere of the planet consists of carbon dioxide, argon, nitrogen and a small amount of oxygen and water vapor.

The surface of the Mars is cold, with an average temperature -62 ° C. Add to this too low surface temperature and unsuitable air, and you will not survive here and a few minutes.

On the next planet, you cannot reach the surface. This is because it is not on the gas giant Jupiter. This planet is more than twice as massive than all other planets in our solar system combined. And its atmosphere mainly consists of hydrogen, helium and cold, windy clouds of ammonia and water.

Jupiter may look bulky, but this does not prevent him from spinning quickly. Due to such high rotation speeds, very strong winds are raging in the atmosphere of Jupiter. Plus a large red spot, which is a storm larger than the earth.

If you fall on the planet, you will enter the atmosphere at a tremendous speed of 49 km/s. And as you fall, the atmosphere will become more dense and turbulent. You may feel that you crash into the wall again and again.

If you go down 692 km, you will find that the pressure there is higher than on the bottom of the Mariana Slok, the deepest place on Earth. If the pressure had not killed you, then the temperature that is on average is -145 ° C would have been killed. On Jupiter you would not have survived for a second.

Saturn is another gas giant that simply does not have a hard surface. And, as in Jupiter, the day there lasts about 10.7 hours. Here you would face deadly strong winds reaching 1800 km/h.

With an atmosphere of hydrogen and helium unsuitable for breathing, Saturn is not able to support life. But perhaps you will be lucky on one of his companions. Take titanium and Enzelad. These two satellites have inner oceans, which theoretically can support life.

Let's move on to the first of the ice giants in our solar system - Uranus. The day on it lasts about 17 hours, and the planet also rotates from east to west and lies on the side.

It is not surprising that the atmosphere of Uranus is unsuitable for breathing, it consists of hydrogen, helium and methane. The last component gives Uranus an unforgettable blue-green color and the stink of rotten eggs.

There are other unusual dangers in Uranus, for which you need to be prepared, such as mysterious outbreaks of x -rays and deadly diamond rain.

You did not rush. Strongly compressed carbon atoms falling from the atmosphere. But don't worry. Huge pressure will kill you in less than a second.

The last but no less important, Neptune. Dark, cold planet with supersonic winds, the speed of which reaches 2000 km/h. This is faster than the maximum speed of the fighter. So if the pressure does not kill you before, these supersonic winds will probably do their job.

The day on Neptune lasts 16 earth hours, but for so long you will not stretch out on this planet.
