      Hello! Other than Earth, perhaps Mercury or Venus, because even though they are rocky planets, they have extreme conditions. Mercury has a huge temperature difference between day and night of over 500 degrees, while Venus has a thick, hazardous atmosphere, causing many early missions to probe the Venus surface to fail!

      I’m biased because I work on Earth, but I think it’s the most interesting to study because we have lots of data about the magnetic field and how it interacts with the Sun. If we had more data, maybe Uranus would be the most interesting planet to study, because it’s actually been knocked onto its side and so it spins sideways!

      For my job, all types of planets are interesting. Personally, I love Jupiter and Earth.
