      My favourite isn’t actually a planet but the moon Europa. It is one of the many moons of the giant planet Jupiter, and is covered in a very thick layer of ice. Europa is really unique because there is a very good possibility that there is liquid water under it’s icy surface. And where there is liquid water there is the possibility that there could be life! This makes Europa the most likely place to find life in our solar system apart from Earth 🙂

      Earth! Because that’s where all my favourite people live. 😉 Whether you are interested in dinosaurs, mammals, insects, fish, reptiles, amphibians, plants, geology, oceans, human history, buildings, food, weather, machinery, or a just a good ol’ set of bagpipes, there’s a good chance you will find something of interest on Earth. To say there’s at least a lifetime’s worth of exploring to do on any one of these topics would be an understatement.
