Yes, it's time to Rock the Inner Geek and proclaim your love for what you consider to be what's hot and what's...well, boring in terms of planetary excitement. Criteria may include dynamicism, color, scale, grandeur, crater-counting wrist torture, budgetary reality, and whatever else you might consider relevant. I'll open with my own picks, without giving any particular reasons. (Earth can count if you like)
In descending order... Most Interesting: 1.) Io 2.) Titan 3.) Europa 4.) Enceladus 5.) Mars 6.) Triton 7.) Venus 8.) Pluto 9.) Dione 10. Iapetus Least Interesting: 1.) Rhea 2.) Luna 3.) Mercury 4.) Oberon 5.) Mimas 6.) Tethys 7.) Callisto 8.) Ganymede 9.) Earth 10.) New Jersey -------------------- ...if you don't like my melody, i'll sing it in a major key, i'll sing it very happily. heavens! everybody's all aboard? let's take it back to that minor chord...

I echo what Doug said (and no, I'm not forgetting about Rhea).
Interesting ones in very approximate/crude order by how interesting they seem: Titan Io Jupiter Europa Saturn Enceladus Triton Uranus (!) Venus Mars Neptune Vesta Pluto Miranda I was unable to limit myself to only 10 bodies. |
