      Not to mention its magnetosphere. Also it's rotation will have a huge impact. Venus, in its current orbit, is tidally locked to the sun, or nearly so, with a reversed rotation from the rest of the planets. Basically on Venus, the sun raises in the west and sets in the east, and a Venusian day and a Venusian year are about the same length of time.
      However, if you follow Anton Petrov's channel, he has talked about how Venus may have had liquid water on its surface as little as 10 or 20 million years ago, or something like that. Then some event triggered the runaway greenhouse conditions we see today. Probably geologic in nature, such as a massive flood basalt eruption that released too much volcanic gasses into the atmosphere or something.

    • @frankfowlkes7872
      @frankfowlkes7872 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      This is the question. The reason Venus turned into the planet it is today has a lot to do with it being where it is closer to the Sun. In fact as the Sun heats up as it expands the Earth will find itself in a similar situation to Venus in 500 million or so years. If Venus had started off in the orbit of Mars it likely would not have developed it's current oppressive atmosphere. Mars on the other hand would, as pointed out in this video, still be out of luck still do to its weak gravity and inability to hold on to the necessary thicker atmosphere.

      Yes and no. While you're right, a planet has to be large enough to have enough gravity to hold down air, the distance from the Sun matters too. For example, if you put Earth into Mars' orbit, it'd still be a perpetual winter with ice caps covering half the planet, and thus no life could exist.

      @matthewviramontes3131 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@molotovick I've had this conversation with someone else, and let me say that at the very least it's tricky. First of all, the hottest temperature ever recorded on Mars was 95°F, and that's at the equator during the summer. The only reason that it even gets that hot is because of Mars' axial tilt, which is about 25°. This allows for seasons, which obviously includes a summer. The problem is that Earth is less tilted than Mars, being at 23.5°, so it would experience less extreme seasons, which means not as cold in the winter, but more importantly, not as warm in the summer. The next problem is that unlike Mars, Earth has a dense atmosphere that blocks out a lot of sunlight, which allows us not to heat up nearly as much. For example, although Earth and the Moon are relatively the same distance from the Sun, the max temperature on Earth is 135°F, whereas on the Moon, it's upwards of 250°F (because it doesn't have an atmosphere). So temperatures on Earth (in Mars' orbit) would be significantly cooler than Mars in Mars orbit. The last problem is distance from the Sun. Mars is much further out, and has a much more eccentric orbit. So think about what the temperatures are here on Earth in any given place, but now push us out another 30 million miles from the Sun at Mars closest approach, or another 60 million miles out at it's most distant. All of those things combined would make Earth much, much colder in Mars' orbit. That being said, could some spots on Earth get warm enough to harbor liquid water at some point in the year? Perhaps. But the bigger question is that when Earth would be at its max distance from the sun at some 150 million miles out, would it render it so cold that the planet couldn't thaw out enough to support life in its warmest days? That I don't know.

      As for com-lag, that would vary between 2 minutes and much longer as the planets are orbiting at different speeds and distances from the Sun, and the distance will change based on their relative positions in their respective orbital cycles.
      As for commercial viability, you're committing the fallacy of assuming CURRENT technology is the ALL THERE EVER WILL BE. Also the fallacy that under the circumstances of civilized live existing on a neighboring planet that both planet's civilizations wouldn't be motivated to solve the problem of commercially viable transport and travel between Earth and Venus, and that interplanetary travel wouldn't be FAR more advanced then it is in our reality.

    I think between Venus and Mars, Venus would be easier to terraform if it was in Mars' orbit. But Venus does have another problem that makes it less desirable than Mars. Venus has a very long day/night cycle. At least Mars' day night cycle is only 30 minutes longer.

    • @Seriously_Unserious
      @Seriously_Unserious 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Venus would need us to find it a moon, as part of the terraforming process. A large enough moon would help stabilize Venus' rotation to be more normal. Venus would probably also need many asteroid bombardments to put energy into it rotating faster as well. However, the good news is apparently the upper atmosphere is more Earth like then we once thought and some sort of floating stations could possibly be sustained up there. Anton Petrov did a series of videos on this and he found, that Venus, even in its current orbit, is far more terraformable then Mars will ever be.

    The main obstacle to get around on Mars is to restart its convection cycle. Venus needs a large Moon to speed up its rotation and not be tidally-locked; this can sometimes help distribute weather more evenly around a planet. Also, it would spin it fast enough for its molten core to generate a magnetic field, allowing it to hold onto a more diverse range of lighter elements necessary for water and life. Mars could with this too actually.

      If a boxer has one win, it is not good evidence that he is a good boxer, if other his fights are losses

    But now I’d be curious if any of the gas giants switched orbits. I know Jupiter’s gravitational force affects so much in our system so I’d be curious what would happen if Jupiter moved further away. Like what if it switched with Saturn? Or if we really wanna be extreme, what if Jupiter and Pluto switched positions?

      The venusian atmosphere would slowly freeze and after a long time of cooling down, you'd get a frozen rock with a thin oxygen atmosphere, not much different than Pluto.
      Pluto on the other hand would just melt away and its atmosphere would be blown away by the sun, from Earth it would look like a long comet. At the end, only the silicate core would remain of what was Pluto.

    If we actually had the ability to swap orbits of planets, then we could do a lot more.
    1a. Venus orbital parameters
    - Move to 1.2 AU
    - Increase rotation to 24h day
    - Reposition planet to be pro-grade with 25 degree axial tilt for seasons
    - Reduce eccentricity to 0%
    - Reduce inclination to 0%
    1b. Venus moon
    - Move Europa into orbit at 1/4 of Hill Sphere maximum
    - pro-grade orbit with 25 degree axial tilt
    - Eccentricity to 0%
    - Inclination to 0%
    1c. Venus atmosphere
    - Convert CO2 to hydrocarbons by using artificial photosynthesis
    - Convert SO2 S and O2 using sulfur scrubbers
    - Reduce atmospheric pressure to about 3 AU by using above methods
    - Eliminate or capture/remove Carbon Monoxide, Helium, Neon, Hydrogen Chloride/Fluoride
    - Reduce pressure further by using it to supply Mars and Mercury atmospheres
    - Add water for oceans (66% water coverage) from Triton and Pluto and redirected comets (see 2c and 3c below about Triton and Pluto)
    1d. Venus artificial magnetosphere
    - solid orbital ring of permanent magnets
    2a. Mars orbital parameters
    - Move to 1.4 AU

    - Reduce inclination to 0%
    2b. Mars moon
    - Move Phobos/Demios to asteroid belt
    - Move Tritan into orbit at 1/4 of Hill Sphere maximum
    - pro-grade orbit with 25 degree axial tilt
    - Eccentricity to 0%
    - Inclination to 0%
    2c. Mars atmosphere
    - Eliminate or capture/remove Carbon Monoxide
    - Add water for oceans (66% water coverage) from Triton
    - Add gases for atmosphere from Venus

    - Move to 1.6 AU
    - Increase rotation to 24h day

    As a non-english-native person I really struggle to understand descriptions like "a hundred times less dense".
    Wouldn't that be basically one per cent as dense or one hundreth of the density?
    Or "ten times stronger" - would that mean something is ten times as strong as the original or eleven times as strong, since ten times the original amount is added to the original? English is really confusing to me sometimes.

    • @jasminemclean4447
      @jasminemclean4447 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The way that I like to think of it, a hundred times less dense is the opposite of a hundred times more. So if it’s a hundred times more and it’s sitting at 100 for example, it would now be sitting at 10,000. If it’s a hundred times less dense at 100, it’s 1. Kind of multiplication vs division.

      Bad. Jupiter would start to migrate inwards towards the Sun, wrecking the solar system as a result. It's only thanks to its current position and orbital resonance with Saturn can we exist, to appreciate how life can and can't form in the universe.
