Watching the "Voyage to the Planets" series on ABC1 has lead me to daydream of visiting these worlds. I'd love to roam around on Titan and watch the sunset from the bank of a hydrocarbon lake with Saturn hanging in the hazy sky above.
If you could visit any body within our solar system without any ill-effects (radiation, temperature extremes, etc.) where would you go, and why?

Technically, it's within reach...but humans will never achieve it.

That would be a complete waste of time as the ground is nearly the melting point of lead:shrug:
Titon,for the views of Saturn,and anyone of the Jupiter Moons. to get the equivalent views of Jupiter:D

I was following the rules for this Pie in the sky imagination trip which as above stipulates that temperature does not hinder what you can do.



So I was not taking it literally:D:P:rofl:

Just from watching the show, my 4 year old son has built a rocket ship at school. he is taking the whole class to saturn and jupiter. and they are going to all the new stars!!!!!
And this is not just a little rocket either. This is adult standing up size. (i will attach a pic later)
How the mind wanders of what is to come in the future!!!!!

Well if we're playing 'Alice in Wonderland'...the only thing I want to see first hand, is how a Photon in created.

I would go to Mars and kick over a few rocks and see what turns up! Maybe take a brush with me too and give the MERs a bit of a clean up for visitors, and a tow rope to pull one of them out.
