Mars.  I think it has the most bitchin' theme music.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

You didn't include Pluto. I am remarkably upset by this.

Mars first. Bitches don't know about my potential terraforming in 200 years.

Saturn second. If could float on water if we had a large enough body of it. How doesn't that blow your mind.

Neptune third. Nice color, all blue and sh*t.

Protip: those who picked Uranus are gay and those who picked Venus are straight.

I'd love to see the surface of Venus, since it's closest to Earth, yet so very different in many respects.

Wow!!!!!ShockedShockedShockedShocked
Pat and I gree on something (however meaningless it might be)... and for the same reasons, too
 
 
BTW, Uranus and Jupiter also have rings around their colours, but the inclination makes it it doesn't reflect the sunlight
 
second fave is Mars, because in 200 years, man will have colonized it by creating oceans and atmosphere.

hmm Mercury is quite a bi-polar planet since it doesn’t agree with himself to ether bee the warmest planet or the coldest planet since it goes from 430¤ C to bitingly -160¤C, so it has it's quality’s

Mars is also quite cool for being possible life bringer, and for having the largest mountain in the solar system Olympic Mounts (20 000 meter over "sea" level)

Jupiter is awesome because it weighs more than the other 7 planets combines, and is huge, and is a really beautiful planet, with a large red spot.

Neptune is coooooooool, and also have a nice blue colour, also have a darker blue spot which contains the solar systems strongest storm,

Uranus have a nice green colour is also could and lies on its head and spins vertically around the sun like a wheel. not as a ball,

Saturn is also a interesting  planet with a lot of fascinating stuff, and the planet Titan surpasses Triton in the level of awesomeness

and Venus is hot, dangerous and a inferno of all that can be deadly to humans raaaaaaaaaarg

Because most people here know the names of the other planets scientists have discovered in other solar systems.

Saturn, though my favorite is Planet X Wink

Mars because we will find a form of life there one day.

Second vote would go to Neptune because of its harsh beauty.

I'd be worried for you if anyone votes for Uranus.   I like Saturn because I thought that that had a good ring to it.
