Many salutations! I love all of the adventures that Chase gets himself into by diving into these celestial bodies that would normally be fatal for us Main Street folks. Provided that all the correct calculations are made, the idea that we could launch a ship to Mercury and successfully land on it galvanizes me with excitement; too bad that we would have it rough with the solar radiation vulnerability and the temperature extremes endemic to Mercury.
Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon is one of my favorite anime series for a lot of reasons and I wish that there were more of the story line in that universe because the eight Sailor Senshi along with Sailor Moon herself strongly suggests that the Moon and all eight of the planets were at some point in the past enough of an emulation of Earth to have hosted civilizations on them; therefore, if we develop and employ the correct kinds of technology, we should be able to reside on or near the other planets. I remember seeing an Isaac Arthur video about cloud cities; if we develop and perfect that technology, the fact that Venus is a lava wasteland (at least until we find a way to cool it off, the fact that Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune do not have solid surfaces to land on. . . both of those facts would cease to be an obstacle. Isaac Arthur also has some videos detailing how we could possibly terraform both Venus and Mars so that we could reside on both of those planets in the future like we do on Earth today; still, we (the human race as a whole) have a lot of growing up to do before venturing out to colonize the Moon and then all of the other planets.
As for the whole matter of whether Pluto is a planet. .. I believe that this is the wrong question to ask. Okay, so Pluto's initial discovery drove home how vast our solar neighborhood really is; does that significance all of a sudden vanish when we later discover that Pluto has a bunch of neighbors in its vicinity (Scowls and shakes head no, that makes Pluto even more amazing! I really would love for us to develop the propulsion technology to at least travel an AU over the course of a day.
If I may, I would like to propose a video idea. How much mass would Mercury and Mars have to gain before their gravity is a match for Earth's How would we add that mass
Along those same lines, how much material do you think it would take to form a lithosphere on Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune so that we could actually live on those planets What would life be like after we pull that off

For those who see Pluto as a planet and don’t use the current planet definition, think about this: If Pluto is a planet, then so is Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, Eris, Sedna & the hundreds of Trans-Neptunian Objects. That means we would have over 100 planets, and it would be pretty hard to memorize the names of over 100 planets, especially since most of those TNOs don’t even have names, just designations like 2014-UZ224. What kid learning about space would want to memorize a planet with a name that complex S/2013 SY99 is another example. And the fact there are so many others with similar names Yeah, good luck not having any kids’ brains figuratively explode.
In conclusion, the International Astronomical Union had to create the additional planet rules to keep us from having to study over 100 planets in our solar system. But fear not, people who think there should be 9 planets in the solar system. Because NASA is currently tracking the outer solar system for one. And soon, we may be able to find the real Planet 9. And Pluto being a planet doesn’t mean it’s banned from the solar system. I mean, seriously, Pluto could’ve ended up getting worse than a demotion to a dwarf planet status. Just look at what happened to the Fifth Giant planet. At least that’s not happening to this dwarf planet anytime soon.

Pluto has a very unusual orbit compared to the other planets. This is just one of the larger chunks of rock on the edge of the Solar System. I'm pretty sure moons have mountains too. Can't chase jump up the mountain Pluto lacks the third thing that makes a planet a planet. I don't know how the hell Pluto could support life. It is way too cold. Pluto can't crash into Neptune. Their orbits don't actually intersect.
It would be odd if Chase didn't die. Not all fallen heroes are meant to be reDOOOOOOOOOOOOOO- Hazard detected. Wouldn't the gravity be light enough to make the fall non-lethal

It's just like when they say gas giants are planets. NASA shouldn't be allowed to determine what is and what isn't a planet. And since that's the case, then we could just say anything that doesn't have a surface in space, isn't a planet. Or it has to have a surface to be a planet. That sounds asinine doesn't it So does having the authority, the self-imposed authority mind you, to determine what is and what is a planet.

SO your saying IF Pluto was any larger it would slam into Neptune which could destroy the whole solar system Once again PROVING GOD in HIS WISDOM & KNOWLEDGE used INTELLIGENT DESIGN to Create ALL things exactly the right size, mass, & distance from one another to all work in harmony. WHAT AN AWESOME GOD WE SERVE!
And Dwarf Planet still has the word PLANET in it. SO, Pluto is still a PLANET in my book.

these were better when it had just the facts on what the topic was about, this took like 8 minutes longer then it needed to say something that is like 2 minutes or less. fact is that pluto doesnt meet all the requirements for being a planet. its not really something to debate. it just doesnt. now you can say you dont like what the requirements are but that doesnt change them. so the end.

I remember back in 2006, when I was really into space and astronomy at the age of 9 years old. One of my obsessions at the time was about the theory of a Planet X. When I heard Pluto was no longer an actual planet in our solar system and now declared a dwarf planet. It kind of broke me. 9 year old me was probably like NOOOO THERE HAS TO BE ANOTHER BIG PLANET BEYOND PLUTO'S ORBIT!

I'm going to find a member of one of those red races. Looking for dot red race today. Just want to say hi. Do are Mexicans and others down south part of the Orange race. Or do you just put them into brown race. My dad was from Africa and my mom is German and Norwegian. So am I just brown race or since I live in America shouldn't I just be lumped back into the black race

Thing is, by the third criteria, Earth isn't a planet. It hasn't cleared its orbit of nearby objects. Otherwise, we wouldn't have the meteor showers around August every damn year. There is still a ton of debris Earth hasn't cleared, but astronomers conveniently ignore that because Pluto being a planet always rubbed some of them wrong.

To me, Pluto is a planet. It just happens to be located outside the Kuiper Belt along with countless other newly labeled 'dwarf planets'. If it were located on the inside of the Kuiper Belt, it would have been classified as a planet not a dwarf planet. Size ain't the issue here. This is all about location and semantics.

Neptune is not a planet. And there is not some giant Neptune size planet out there. Judging by the ice and. There has to be something to make it act like this. Eff off. That makes no sense. We can sense all these smaller things but not a an effing planet. It's so far out Than why is it's gravity messing with these things.

Pluto and its energy impacts Earth even from its far distance away so it's still a planet. And it doesn't flow in an asteroid pattern it flows in a planetary flow pattern. Game over anti Pluto planet head's. How ever your all in a playnet submerged so maybe non exist outside of the earth simulation limbo pods

Old argument standard time: What about the potentially 'thousands' of other micro planets that 'got' to be out there in the Kuiper belt and Oort Cloud further beyond If Pluto has to be a planet be classification classical, then ALL similar objects have to be.
No ifs, and, or butts, with or without no coconuts.

And what the eff is wrong with all the sizes of these space objects. You can go to different sites and almost none are the same. I remember when I was a young kid and you could fit 300 earths in Jupiter's Red Spot. And then 30 is it now 3 All kinds of sizing issues still and you want me to think of planet 9

Pluto IS a real planet. You can't simply re-define it as a non-planet simply because you didn't like the original and proper definition of the word. Pluto orbits the sun. It has enough mass and gravity to be spherical. It has its own natural satellites. And it does, yes, clear its own orbit.

pluto is always a planet to me, it makes the rhyme we learned in school still make sense, the rhyme went My Very Educated Mom Just Served Us Nine Pickles. pluto is always my planet at heart. until they find one that is further out there someday.

Um. You're not thinking 3 dimensionally.
At the point where Pluto cross Neptunes orbit, it is still well above the orbit of Neptune. So even if Neptune were right at the same spot, Pluto would be quite a bit ABOVE it.

And what the eff is this planet 9 or 10 theory or x being a recent 2000s idea At least the 80s and most likely before that. I remember reading time or something in third grade and seeing that. That was 83'

The beat in at the beginning and throughout the video, is ridiculously fire, especially for anybody who makes music, sings, plays an instrument or has a vision for it man. Sick video though

I really feel like scientists don't believe in God at all, Pluto is indeed a planet because it was CREATED by GOD. If you didn't create the galaxy/solar system, you can't say it's not a planet
