Yes. Mars has a relatively stable temperature that living things could survive in with some modifications. Mercury has no atmosphere and so the days are blisteringly hot and the nights damagingly cold. Venus is a pressure cooker that melts lead both during day and night.

False: Mercury is too close to the Sun to even slightly become a planet to colonise. It is VERY difficult to get too (Because of the Suns gravitational pull), has very little water and has a very slow rotational period, which would mean exceptionally long hot days and then very long freezing cold nights.

True. Mars is the planet that we are most likely to colonize. Although Mars is a cold, barren desert, it is the most hospitable of all the terrestrial planets.

False. If we ever colonize another planet in the solar system it would be Mars. Mercury is simply too close to the sun.

How many planets and dwarf planets are in the solar system?

There are 13 in total: Planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Dwarf planets: Ceres, Pluto, Eris, Makemake, and Haumea. It seems likely that several other large objects, such as Sedna, Qaoar and others, will eventually be recognized as dwarf planets. It also seems likely that more dwarf planets will be discovered.


Is Venus the one humans are most likely to colonize?

Venus's atmosphere is significantly hotter and denser than Earth's and not favorable for humans. Mars is the most likely planet humans will travel to next and perhaps colonize. The environment there is more temperate than that of Venus.


Is there a solar system that has 8 planets besides ours?

Other stars, other than our own, have had multiple planets detected in an orbit around them. Its highly likely that there are other systems with eight planets. Planets the size of mercury or even slightly bigger planets the size of the Earth are extremely difficult to detect, so a star with four or five large known planets may actually have a lot more planets.


What is the reason that life is less likely on the outermost planets compared to the inner most planets?

What is the reason that life is less likely on the outermost planets compared to the innermost planets


Are planets more likely to be gas giants or terrestrial planets?

Bigger planets are more likely to be gas giants while smaller ones are more likely to be terrestrial. This of course is not the answer to your question which is, of all planets that may exist, is there a greater likelyhood of there being terrestrial planets or gas giants?

Is their a planet in space with water on it?

Considering water is made with Oxygen and Hydrogen, the only planets that could have water on them would have to have plants. Humans haven't discovered many planets due to the difficulty. We are not advanced enough to know much of this. As space exploration goes on, people learn knew things about the Universe and planets. If humans ever did find a planet with wildlife on it, we'd probably land there, and manage to survive. Humans would most likely eventually colonize on other planets. However, the chances of planets in our solar system having wildlife on them is slim, and to find these, we'd need to travel very far from Earth, once again bringing my point that humans are not advanced enough.

What planets reflect maximum percentage of the light coming from the sun?

Mercury. Comment: You need ESP to answer questions like this. However, I think Venus is the most likely answer.
