- The third largest planet in our solar system and was discovered in the 1700s. Some reasons why this planet doesn't support life is because it is too cold there and it doesn't have a solid surface since it is a gas planet. Some solutions that can help us live on this planet is that we can create a shelter that we can be protected from the cold. Finally, the last solution is to build a floating area where people can stand on.
- The closest planet to the sun and does not have atmosphere .it Will not be able to support life because it does not have an atmosphere and it is to close to the sun. Some solutions that can help us live on this planet is to make a strong enough atmosphere and stay on the terminator line that marks day and night
- The second closest planet to the. Life will not thrive here because the surface is too hot and the air pressure is too strong there. Some solutions that can help us live here is to take most of the carbon dioxide out of the air because that is the main cause of the greenhouse effect over there. The last solution is to clear out most of the lava and bring some water over there.
- is One of the most unique planets in our solar system and the densest planet in our solar system. This planet is able to support life because it has liquid water, oxygen that life can breathe, and a strong enough atmosphere to block solar rays.

- The last rocky planet in the solar system and is the color red because of the iron content on the planet. This planet cannot support life because presently there are no signs of water, but we saw signs that water used to be there because some of the rocks had to be carved by water. Also, the atmosphere is so thin that we can be sucked into space and the lack of oxygen. Some solutions that can help us live here is to strengthen the atmosphere so we won't be sucked out into space and to build up the oxygen levels. Finally, the last solution is that we need to bring water over there.
- The largest planet in our solar system and the first gas giant in order. Some reasons why life doesn't live here is because this planet does not have a solid surface to stay on. Another reason why life doesn't live here is because this planet is mostly made of hydrogen and helium without that much oxygen. Some solutions that can help us live on this planet is to created a floating surface that we can stay on due to no surface. Finally, the last solution is to somehow to bring oxygen to the planet.
- The last planet in our solar system and was discovered in the 1800s. Some reasons why this planet doesn't support life is because it is too cold there and it doesn't have a solid surface. Some solutions that can help us live on this planet is to bring oxygen with us from Earth. Finally, the last solution is to create a floating surface where people can stand on.
- The 2nd largest planet in our solar system and the planet that has the most beautiful rings ever. Some reasons why this planet doesn't support life is because this planet doesn't have a solid surface since it is a gas planet. Another reason why this planet doesn't support life is because there is no energy and no liquid water there. Some solutions that can help us live on this planet is to make a floating surface since this planet is a gas planet.
