We must terraform venus to it's former glory
@Windows 10 Mars can never be truly terraformed, meaning being able to live in the open. No magnetosphere means deadly radiation. We'd have to live in protective domes or underground.
@Windows 10 In what time it will be? Hundreds of millions of years, until then nothing significant will change in the zone of inner planets, moreover, until now mankind will either not, or inward in different ways of development, so it is worth and even venus to terraform even gaining experience in terraforming hot planens in other systems but with better location. I think so 😉, best regards.
Im your 100th liker
How about we terraform earth? Easier
@Windows 10 nah, more like 300 million to 2 billion years
In 100k years Jack-shit will happen
And mars sometimes goes in the outer habitable zone, but due to the low pressure and temperature it is impossible for life to happen unless we have terraformed it by then.
Most underrated science TH-camr. You deserve well above 500k subs, man! Love your quality, informative videos.
Lord Sval Xeno Then if that's the case why don't you make a scientific TH-cam channel?
Lord Sval Xeno For TH-cam, it's great and original content. As for not learning more, just pick up a science book or watch a documentary.
Morpheus this is so good I like learning about a space
Just 200k that's over thinking above your'e imagination let's say probally 200k and sorry for my grammar and spelling mistakes in my time
Too much of false data in his videos.
That ocean sounds amazing-
Shallow with no waves_and peaceful
But also, If its a stagnant ocean that doesn’t really move, it would be pretty gross water.
@@jupiter6412 Wouldn't there still be currents?
It would be so scary
I’m so sad I wished they still existed :-(
Same D:
If Venus never died, maybe we would’ve met another intelligent civilization, and we’d be working together to find even more civilizations like us throughout the universe.
Shadow Android they would probably be more advanced then us
@@ryder4082 Then perhaps we'd take notes from them.
Ryder Lyon they probably would be microscopic
Venus is/was Earth but with extreme global warming.
Eric Weng mayb
No. Venus rotates at an extremely slow rate. Almost nearly tidally locked.
@@scrmngchicken403 why not both
Nope, take your end times junk science to mars. It lost its magnetic field and that is why it warmed dummy.
@@StanSwan mars didn't 'warmx though
Your videos get better and better!
If you could hover at about 50 miles up all you would need is an oxygen tank. The air pressure is about the same as earth's. It would be in the 80s but very dry. Winds would be about 40mph. Plus you're above the acid rich clouds.
BMAN488877 😂👍🏻
Doctor Shen it might be. That's why I said about. It's been years since I ran the numbers. We've learned a lot since then.
80 is too hot for complex life to survive. It's almost hot enough to boil water.
JanetFunkYeah you know I meant Fahrenheit. 80F is about 27C. There. That's fixed.
joecugo no rick rolling! 😂
Did Mars, Venus and Earth once all have water at the same time?
Yehp, it was just a few hundred million years ago so dinosaurs were already roaming around. But imagine if some alien life discovered our solar system at that time and see 3 planets naturally supporting life at the same time it would have been epic.. makes you think that the solar system really is amazing
Maybe they did n saw earth's dinosaurs n thought not on your life ! And destroyed Venus n Mars' life 😂
Yes
@@superbuneary8819 like we see TRAPIST-1 system? Now that is a interesting idea🤔
Earth did when God Flooded the Earth
Are you hitting on Venus by saying she is hot?
Kun ia Earth is my bitch
lol
See Weed have you assumed its gender?
See Weed stop it, get some help
Bet you could've gotten a killer tan swimming on Venus.
If there was life on Venus we would never know because every trace of it would be disintegrated.
sumper man or buried far under the surface from when there was plate tectonics.
Not necessarily, there could be indications in the soil, e.g. traces of calcium and/or carbonates. The Soviet Venera-13 and Venera-14 landers in the early 1980s were originally planned to drill for soil sampling. Unfortunately, in both cases the drillers were disabled by the landing. A long-forgotten idea still waiting to be realised. I'm positive that we would find something exciting there.
@@thejakegittesofetruscology5165 That's a good point, except for the fact that it seems Venus is a volcanically active planet and experienced a major resurfacing event somewhere around 500-700 million years ago due to massive floods of lava covering the planet's surface. It may not be easy to locate a spot where an outcrop of ancient sedimentary rock from the time Venus was a more habitable planet pokes through the more recent lava flows. Otherwise reaching the ancient soil layers would require drilling through thick layers of basalt - and no space probe in the foreseeable future will be carrying a giant drilling rig to Venus!
poor life...
@@photios4779 well if we Set up colonies there which would need to be like bespin from star wars we could find out
Awesome content! I'm sure your channel will blow up eventually!
What if venus and mars switched places?
tangytoby then venus would probably be a planet that humans would want to live on lmao
tangytoby Venus would probably be less of a hell world and possibly habitable.
User Name nothing will change on Venus, its atmosphere traps heat, distance doesn’t matter
Venus as a fourth planet, if it has a magnetosphere and a stronger geo-magnetic field will be Earth like. However it will be much colder due to its distance from the sun. If it has a moon, it will stabilize it's rotation and spins either clockwise or counterclockwise and a hours by day sunrise and sunset by the times will be different. A year in Venus as a fourth planet will be years with a possibility 670 days orbit around the sun. You will celebrating your birthday every two years.
Venus as a fourth planet will be perfect for terraforming and sustain life.
Mars as a second planet from the sun will be hotter with a temperature of 700 degrees. If Mars have a magnetosphere and a geo-magnetic field, with will hold of the solar radiation from the sun, but due to its close proximity to the sun, it's environment will be too hot to support life.
What would happen if your mom and dad switched positions? Everything is where it's supposed to be by the living God.
Maybe there was life there and it ended and maybe the same will happen to us and life will arise on mars they'll have youtube videos about the ancient oceans of Earth. Just a thought.
Earth temp will increase quite apart from global warming now. The sun is increasing in heat about 10% per 1 billion years. That means that in about 2 billion years earth will have no life.
@@coweatsman yet in 2 billion years nobody will even remember the way we named things not even how we looked how we thought likewise all life on earth today will be forgotten in that time
Oh it will happen to us
in 2 billion years we have so much time to terraform other planets and leave the Earth
In 2 billion years im already dead
A very well made video! Every video you make is impressive. I've added this one to my astrobiology play list.
what if humans developed on venus but because of the issues on the planet they decided to move to earth.
Lemon Melon Then why did we only have space traveling tech in the past several decades?
It was destroyed and they taught there children crude and ancient ways, along with records
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes.
Humans are ugly
@@CRY0RAPT0R is 2d better? 🎆🎀何ですか。
Next do swimming in Titan's ocean.
RuBiK Gaming it was already done
You really deserve more subs, amazing space content and so much interesting Information you share with us, thank you very much. ^-^
really awesome content ...keep up the good work...u deserve more sub
Verd informative video as always
Keep Up The Good Work! :D
Amazing video Dreksler! You should also mention that Venus might have bacterial life in it's clouds.
Also there are organisms known as Extremophiles that survive extreme temperatures and acidic conditions which could allow them to survive the surface of Venus
Dreksler you should talk about the ocean world Gj 1214b or Kepler 22b. Both have thick atmosphere and gravity because of their mass.
First Name Last Name The first ever person I have seen to be first to not say "first". Good job.
Love these videos. They help me wind down before going to sleep, imagining traveling to distant worlds....🌛
Dude how do you not have more subs! The videos are mint, love the music to them

Venus and Mars should definitely change places. The immense atmospheric pressure and temperature of Venus would calm down if it was brought further away from da Sun and contrariwise, Mars whose size and atmosphere are so feeble would gain more heat if it were to be placed where Venus is. There, 3 habitable planets.
Venus is hot not because of its distance but the large amount of CO2 in its atmosphere. It would be hot in Mars orbit too. Mars had its atmosphere striped by the Sun, putting it closer won't help it solve the problem, all it would due is most likely strip a bit more off what remains.
It would be much cooler in Mars orbit, down to maybe 200C where it could hold liquid water (and possibly life) at such pressures.
goobot1 If Venus had oceans and an atmosphere just like Earth, it was blue. Now Venus is yellowish white in color due to the carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid in its atmosphere.
Mars would not be habitable in any orbit as it has no magnetic field nor a proper atmosphere. Mars "atmosphere" at surface level is as thin as earth's is at 30km high. That is so high that jumping from these heights requires a space suit and is called space diving, but nevertheless at least one madman has done that.
This means you dont get enough oxygen to live on mars and you will be bombarded by lethal amounts of radiation all the time on mars, especially if it was in venus orbit.
That's an interesting idea, but this kind of "solar system engineering" would only be one step towards making these planets habitable. Mars has very little atmosphere and what it does have isn't breathable, so a much more Earth-like one would have to be artificially created. One could potentially fill the atmosphere with oxygen by disassociating lots of water, which as a bonus would leave hydrogen which could be used as fuel. But this would take a *huge* amount of water and I don't know if what is available at the Martian polar caps would be nearly enough. Unfortunately, Mars also has no magnetic field, so the sun would strip this atmosphere away over time, but I suppose it could be protected by building a transparent Dyson sphere around the whole planet which would let solar radiation in, but keep the atmosphere from leaking out. This would have the advantage of making the whole planet a greenhouse to compensate for its further distance from the sun compared to Earth. The massive carbon dioxide atmosphere of Venus would have to be stripped away, perhaps by repeatedly flying a big asteroid so close to Venus that it drags some of its atmosphere out into space with each pass - and then replaced with a much more Earth-like mixture of gases. If this is even possible, we're talking the extreme far future here, as in many thousands of years from now, assuming humanity survives that long. But I also can no more say that this kind of radical planetary engineering is impossible than an ancient Roman could say that putting a man on the Moon is impossible. One never knows what could be done in the future.
what only *38K SUBS?!* You deserve soooo much more!!
Andromeda ??? STOP WATCHING TH-cam AND FOCUS ON HOLDING YOUR PLANETS
Oh have I ever said that I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!!
I am glad that you pointed out that venus lost its magnetic field because of the heavy bombardment. ..it was suggested that Mars had a similar fate. Warth also suffered through it but wound up getting a moon out of the process. Imagine what it would be like if Mars and Venus survived the bombardment kept their atmospheres and magnetic fields. We could have been a solar system with 3 habitable worlds
closed everything and clicked. best youtube channel!
I very much enjoy your interesting and unique content Dreksler. I love these mind bending hypotheticals.
I miss him saying Ert. And no I'm not making fun of him. I find it unique and funny. In a good way.
These videos are just addicting! It's really a good channel to learn with high experience and you need like 1,000,000 subs! They are awesome VIDS.
Brilliant...
as always! :-D
Crazy as always!!! Good Job
Love this channel.
Love your channel man, you got that infectious curiosity in your voice.
You make very good videos. Good explanations and graphics. Keep going🤙🤙🤙🤙
Great video. Thanks for the upload...
Isn't Venus also too hot because it's close to the sun? The sun wasn't that strong and hot in the earlier stage of the solar system. (According to some documentaries).
Antares Andrews No. Venus is so hot cause it has a thick atmosphere.
Michael Terrell If early Venus had an atmosphere just like planet Earth and had oceans, it was likely blue in color. The reason why Venus looks yellow today, it is because of the carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid that is now in the atmosphere.
@@Hotters9060 that as well. 3.8 billion years ago, Venus was habitable and Earth was hostile with no oxygen. Venus is an example of apocalyptic global warming.
Michael Terrell But the guy in this video said that Venus atmosphere was yellow or orange in color billions of years ago and had carbon dioxide with sulfuric acid but I doubt it. Venus original atmosphere had to have been blue in color.
@@Hotters9060 it was. Venus was a garden, tropical planet back then that looked a lot like Earth. Venus was a habitable planet for like 2 billion years until the sun grew and struck Venus was a sheer quantity of sunlight which gave us the hell world we see today.
Great vid!
Again
Thanks!
I love this channel!
It also has a retrograde rotation IE spins backwards, one day on Venus is around 233-245 Earth days. Due this slow rotation it has more sun exposure on its day side which in turn meant more heat. Most likely at first, one side just froze while one side got backed, but eventually over time as Its oceans boiled away its started to cause a runway green house effect.
How it got its retrograde rotation has a few theory's.
Not going to list all of them but one is believed be a massive impact during the late heavy bombardment, that hit it and just the right spot and just the right angle to cause it to start spinning backwards. And as it started to slow down it lost its magnetosphere as its core was also slowing down.
Hydrogen stripping seems to be the common denominator for why Venus and Mars are uninhabitable. Makes you realize how important having a fast rotating liquid iron core is. In the case of Mars, it never had enough mass to keep its core from freezing, in the case of Venus, it was that massive collision that all but made it almost geosynchronous with the sun. So no rotation=no magnetic field=UV radiation strips the hydrogen from the water in the upper atmosphere. So if Mars was a bit bigger, or Venus didn't take that hit and we could be having interplanetary wars by now:(
Nice job dude
A typical bathyscaphe sub could withstand the pressure on Venus--too bad the heat would still melt it.
That problem could easily be solved by constructing it out of titanium, which has a melting point of 1,668°C. It would remain perfectly solid in the oven-like 450°C environment on Venus. The bigger problem would be constructing microchips and other electronic and control system components that would not malfunction in the extreme heat. There's no point landing a titanium probe on Venus if the electronics would quickly fail.
Well done i love your vids
YES! I needed this video for my book!
I like this channel cause he says Celsius
This channel is amazing...
New Sub Great Content
Thank you for the value! I'm going to write a story now.
Awesome! Next time make a video about nebula's , planetary nebula's ,
Super & hypernovas and Nova's
I like your stuff.
The way you speak is so cool!
really cool stuff drek I never even knew Venus had oceans hey it probably it .never know
"Venus is the hottest planet in the solar system"
*inhales*
*dies*
I always think that, if he had the proper terraforming technology to form an anti-green house effect and reducing the thickness of the atmosphere to about one Earth atmosphere, get the core to do its dynamo effect to generate the magnetic field and keep temperatures at a decent level despite being on the inner edge of the habitable zone and finally to accelerate its rotation, Venus could be turned into a tropical paradise.

Imagine if Venus and Mars still have their oceans, we'll have a trio of habitable planets in the Solar System
Nice video
I LOVE SWIMMING
WAIT I CANT SWIM
Why do you like swimming
You can’t fucking swim why tell me why
please make videos on how to make the celestial more earth like.
We will probably never know, but it would be most interesting if Venus once harboured life, in any form. I would not expect the Goldilocks era to last long enough for multi-cellular life forms to develop but is an interesting thought that it is possible that there may have been living organisms on on Venus, before it lost its magneto field.
So how many miles from the shore could you walk through the oceans before the water becomes too deep?
Does Venus spin particularly faster or slower than Earth? Would that have made a difference?
early squad!! nice vid as always😅
On what simulator does he get these simulations?
Interesting subject
Mosquitos should live in a habitable Venus
What about the temperatures especially over time? I imagine there would have been a period when the Cytherean oceans were boiling due to the rising temperatures - but still present. Imagine swimming in those! Need a cool suit. Great clip thanks - very minor nit I'm not sure about the polar ice shown at the 1 min 39 seconds mark - would the poles of Venus ever have been cool enough to sustain ice even in the Cytherean winters?
What was the temperature back then
If u have no oxygen how do u get water
Venus: 462 °C
Me: Hold my beer.
I wish you have 5 million subscribers
Wow interesting
“ it also has thunders and lots of acid rain!”
The ocean would still be blue if it was a water ocean. The real reason why the ocean is blue is because water absorbs other colors better than it does blue. Think for a minute: if the sky was what made water blue, why do oceans, pools, lakes, etc. retain their blue color when it's cloudy?
Cause it's daytime :3
The Spartan of Pluto Early venus might have been blue just like earth is today.
When it's night why does water still appear black.
The color of an ocean also depends upon what minerals and sediments are dissolved or suspended in its waters. I've watched science documentaries where it was said that the Earth's oceans were a red to rosy pink color very early in the history of our planet due to the high levels of iron dissolved in our oceans. But as primitive life evolved to the point where it began to expel oxygen as a waste gas, the iron began to combine with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust) which precipitated to the ocean bottoms, so our oceans turned blue as the iron was removed.
Venus had oceans....what an interesting concept. Could the oceans have been smaller but deeper?
venus' surface is quite flat so majority of the planet would have been covered with large but shallow oceans (about 80% of the planet)
Your videos send my imagination reeling
Hotel?
Trivago.
hotel?
Has dirty toilets. Like seriously

Old meme?
This comment.

GOOD MEMES NEVER DIE
You probably didn’t learn this in school. The early oceans on Venus were very shallow so you could go out kind of far. The depth is still getting deeper as you go farther out.
How much for the ticket to a simulated to Venus surface?
lemma legiti 4500000 dollars
whats the tempreture differents of venus and mercury?
cambuurrinse around 100°
ty, but isnt mercury hotter? if i check wiki its 900kelvin and venus 700
Venus has a fairly uniform surface temperature of around 450°C due to its thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide. This greenhouse gas intensifies the heat it receives from the sun and the high winds cause both the day and night sides of the planet to be roughly the same temperature. Mercury has no atmosphere, so there is a HUGE difference in temperature between the day and night sides of the planet. The night side quickly loses its surface heat, so temperatures plummet to around -180°C, but the day side can reach temperatures similar to that of Venus (430°C). Being closer to the Sun, the part of Mercury facing the sun is naturally very hot, but the fact that Venus is slightly hotter despite being further away just goes to show how powerful the greenhouse effect can be.
Aye 0:34 I heard earth not ert fix that man. You are known for ert.
It would been wonderful have another available planet Earth where we could transfer.
What was the surface temperature of Venus before it became the hellish world we see now? It would have been awesome if both Venus and Mars stayed Earth-like
Could you add captions?
Temperature?
Venus looks like a smiley face
Something massive slammed into Venus to make it revolve clockwise and it moves so slow the magnetic field almost stopped allowing the solar winds to blast away most of the water
I just found out that a comet contains water. Perhaps our planet had been hit by it. Where did it come from?
just keep swimming just keep swimming🎶
Where are you from mate?
eart
I wished Venus stayed that way forever
so Mars lost its magnetic field and its atmosphere gets striped but Venus ends up with an uber thick atmosphere, is that a gravity thing ?
