23. I think the "Gas Giants" are all really neat
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are all fascinating to me. I wish we knew more about them and what is going on behind their calm facades.

38. Don't forget Europa
that moon has an enormous amount of liquid H2O

And Titan, the moon of Saturn the satellite landed on---it has a thicker atmosphere than earth!

31. I have to mention 51 Pegasi
If it's the planet I'm thinking of, it's a solid rock 5 times the size of Jupiter that orbits its parent star with an orbit smaller than Mercury's. Welcome to Planet Hell!
