so lets think bigger, In the furthest reaches of the Solar System is the Oort Cloud; a theorized cloud of icy objects that could orbit the Sun to a distance of 1.87 light-years away. That is huge! and at the speed of light it would only take you 682 days to go from the sun to the cloud at 300,000 kilometers per second. In short the universe is vast; there are billions upon billion planets that could have extraterrestrial life on it. The question is; how long until we are able to travel these distances

others, an attempt has been made to bring astronomers back to some variation of the nebular (gas cloud) hypothesis. Their efforts have been surprisingly successful, in spite of the obvious physical principle that gas in outer space (as well as here on earth) never coagulates; it always spreads outward. Let us consider some of the major reasons the various theories of the origin of our solar system are more foolishness than fact. 1-Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the eighth largest. Mercury

are multiple conditions that are necessary for they’re to be life on Earth such as the ones listed below: * Distance away from the Sun: This controls the amount of insolation on Earth, so therefor the temperature and the presence of liquid water (the Earth is 150’000’000 km away from the Sun). Another factor that is determined by the distance away from the sun is the length of the year; if a planet takes 30,687 Earth days for a year to pass (like Uranus) it will have an effect on how long

full of interesting surprises. Mars is the 4th planet from the Sun, right after Earth. When Mars is the very closest to Earth it can be only 33.9 million miles from Earth (54.6 million kilometers). This happens every two years and is the best time to send a spacecraft to Mars. Even at its closest point a trip to Mars is 300 days or 10 months. However, when it is the furthest away it’s almost 250 million miles from Earth (401 million km). But on average it is about 140 million miles (225 million km)
