      Earth because that it where I live and there are so many cool things to see even just on our small planet!

      I think I would say Earth as well. There is so much we don’t know about our own planet and astronauts are being sent all over the place to find out about other planets. I’d like to know more about Earth! Although it would be very exciting to have a trip into space!

      Difficult. Two choices.

      Venus – carbon dioxide atmosphere, sulphuric acid rain, permanent cloud cover and incredibly powerful thunder storms.

      or

      Mercury – it rotates so that the same side of the planet is always facing the sun (no change from night to day like us). Therefore one side of the planet is so hot you would burn up, whilst the side facing away from the sun is so cold you would instantly freeze.

      Venus!!

      Because you can see it from Earth (it’s the brightest star in the sky) and even though it is not the closest to the sun it is the hottest (because of the Carbon dioxide atmosphere that Adam mentioned – it keeps the heat in)
