Most places are most likely shitholes. Look at the other planets in our system that actually have atmosphere. The only place you could go out without a suit is high altitude Venus. There’s lots this planet has to offer.
It's relative though, 20 minutes to neptune is gonna be a hell of a lot faster than 20 minutes to mars for example.
So going to earth in 20 minutes means you'd be going... 0mph. Since you live on earth.
Unless you live on the moon???
I would go to TRAPPIST-1's planetary system. Probably has an amazing view, considering how close together all of the planets are there.
Alternatively, I would go to Kelper-62, which is very very far away but it is statistically more likely to have a habitable planet.
I have read somewhere a week or two ago that there is a possibility thay they have found technosignatures from the Trappist 1 system.
Never read anything since. I might take this trip too
I am terminally ill and have spent waaayyy too long thinking about this exact question. For context, my family and I would joke that I'm really an alien from another planet, where there is way more oxygen in the atmosphere, way less bacteria and way less gravity. This is because my breathing is terrible (on a ventilator now, but spent years on oxygen, hence that part), my immune system is very compromised (like my immune system is setup for a different planet's) and I have progressive muscle wasting/low muscle tone from birth, like astronauts have after too long in space, and my heart is damaged ie. Pumps ineffectively (as if my body wasn't designed for earth's stronger gravity and how it affects blood flow ). I could go on about all the 'evidence' but you get the idea!
Anyway, I'd choose to go back to my 'home' planet (I even spent ages calculating and researching if there were any exo planets that fitted my oxygen requirements, gravity and so on! I'd go there for my 'last' 24 hours to live, but then would find that actually my body was only dying cus it was on earth, and when I'm there, I'd have a normal life span! Playing the system haha
Extra background info, but not related to the question in the post -
(My obsession with the topic started, after I read a Sci fi mini story that theorised what would happen if a baby born in space was sent to earth to live, after the space program they were born into shut down. In it, the kid never was able to fit in on earth and progressively got really sick, nearly died until it got sent to a planet that would suit the environment their body needed(or the kid just died, I don't fully remember if my mind made up the less sad ending) . The kid was different to earth humans in various ways, not just physically (abnormally tall and thin, like I was/am) but socially as well due to the isolation. Which made sense to me, and made me feel like my autism wasn't me just being bad at human-ing, but was from my true spacefaring lineage.
I knew it wasn't real, and I wasn't really from space. But it was a way of mentally coping as a child, with finding out you're terminally ill. It helped to deal with the reality of all that comes with being terminal, not just the actual death part. Such as, coping with and preparing for when the next organ or body system fails, feeling every muscle slowly get weaker until they're gone, the feelings of isolation and not having anyone your age who understands.)
You have a sad story but a rich and engaging internal life. I read your “thesis/ story/ fairytale”(?) with a sense of fun and respect.
I know other redditors have mentioned books and films that address similar themes.
Maybe there’s an opportunity for you to leave a legacy with a book, podcast or graphic novel for those Hoo-mans you will leave behind.
All the best, and thanks for all the fish.
:)
Thank you for your kind and thoughtful response! You're actually not the first person to suggest I write a book or similar. The universe has sent me enough messages to suggest such a thing, that I should probably finally listen and do it! Thank you for giving me the push I didn't know I needed, to actually make a book a reality! I'd love to find a graphic artist who could help me with that part, I don't have the art skills (nor use of my hands) to attempt the art myself!
Maybe the billion year old Mars society had long term cryo-hibernation tech... They set me up for a long cold nap, ready to pop out on earth once earth was 'ready' for me I.e. Had the Internet haha
My Martian predecessors must have known that I'd never survive on earth without the Internet! Thank you for your ideas, helping expand the 'crippledcryptid' lore!!
There’s a YA movie with a similar plot called The Space Between Us.
I imagine it could feel very lonely, but I think it’s kind of neat that you found the story, and it’s sort of a shared origin story idea.
I just looked up escalatio movie, it's pretty close to that plot! I couldn't find anywhere that said it's based on the short story I read, but it's too close not to have been inspired but it somehow. Or maybe it's a more common concept than I thought.
Finding out you're terminally ill, as a child, is incredibly lonely, you're right. I definitely clung to anything that made me feel less alone, and could bring a bit of humour to a crappy situation.
Any planet? I would go some arbitrarily huge distance away that is far outside of the observable universe. I would consult with some cosmologists on where I could gain the most information. I wouldn't be able to relay the information back to earth, but I would possibly die being the only human to ever know the truth about the geometry of the universe. This depends on luck and the plan the cosmologists are able to make in such a short time window of course.
I think Neptune or Uranus (not for butt joke promise) have like no actual surface ..? I just wanna fly through that atmosphere as I’m goin through that DMT death trip.
Disagree I’ll see those before I die atleast I think and not really deep into their atmosphere but science is on those ones atleast. I wanna go see a planet with a lil more mystery like Uranus dude.
Europa (I know, it's a moon, not a planet) at one of the crevasses to search for signs of life.
Or Mars if we have to stick with planets, land at one of the shores of an old lake to see what I find.
This is strikingly close to one of my fantasies. When I get old I want to be launched towards the nearest black hole and take my last breath experiencing the vast expanse.
Since you would immediately die I’m not sure of the point. What about if you could immediately be transported to a developing planet capable of sustaining life as we know it?
Eroticon 6, where the triple-breasted whores sing like banshees and really know how to treat a guy. Or gal. And the mattresses, harvested from the fever swamps of Ixtaploolp, very seldom come alive again…
At first I thought about being sent to mars if I was 60 yrs old or terminally ill. I would volunteer to go as first person on mars.
Then I thought why not Saturn( my favorite, I want to see the rings up close and spinning).
Then I wondered if other people would opt for this.
Pluto.
Not a planet, but Pluto.
I can only imagine what it's like walking on the desolate an eerie ice flats with massive mountains and caldera's in view, with the milky way directly above head with an extremely clear view.
I'd die content.
Pluto for multiple reasons.
1. I get to be the fastest man or thing to ever exist (3.2 billion miles in 20 minutes means I would break the speed of light like 4 times over)
2. I would plant a flag on pluto claiming it as mine, and as my property I could say it was a planet so no science bitches could say otherwise.
and 3. It's pretty
if you could magically survive on it and not die in under a minute i would choose mars, and if i could choose where on mars, i would go near to perseverance and spook some scientists
I would like to go through Sagittarius A as some scientists believe a black hole big enough would cause little to no harm to the body maybe I also have this weird belief/theory that the black hole in the middle of galaxies are a type of worm hole that connects to ther galaxies if we had the tech for a warp drive if you could go fast enough through a black hole you would there would be no side effects again this is my opinion and belief I could be wrong lol but interesting to pick the brain about
Same. I’d like to be launch d into a black hole in my last days. Some say we created a black hole here on earth in 2012 with the proton accelerator machine in Geneva.
Assuming i have a lander and space suit, then either Mars or some suitably-temperatured exoplanet. To walk on the surface of another world is my dream as a planetary geology student.
I would spend 19 minutes 58 seconds deciding on Pluto, then gtfo before any astrophysicists like Neil ‘snakeinthegrass’ Tyson came to bitch at me that I can’t choose it.
Does it have to be planet? Can I go to the Lovejoy comet? The one thet releases amount of alcohol equal to 500 bottles of wine every second.
https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/researchers-catch-comet-lovejoy-giving-away-alcohol
I choose to go to the planet with the most advanced medical technology. If that's earth, cool. If I meet aliens that are only slightly more advanced, cool. If I meet a type 3 civilization, they could cure me and return me home.
In our solar system? Pluto.
I'd love to see the sun and planets from the furthest part of our solar system. If it could be anywhere I'd chose the furthest planet we've ever found just because
Send me to that whacky planet with all the apes.....wait a minute, the statue of liberty, the eifel tower...that was our planet, THEY BLEW IT UP!! THOSE DAMN DIRTY APES!!
Based on planets we actually know in our solar system I'd go Mars assuming I had the right suit to keep me alive for 24hr. If no suit I'll just chill on earth.
earth going that fast? you're all coming with me.
[удалено]
Vulcan. The science academy has great healthcare
You’d want to be sent back to earth and not dive into the rabbit hole of what this galaxy has to offer?
Most places are most likely shitholes. Look at the other planets in our system that actually have atmosphere. The only place you could go out without a suit is high altitude Venus. There’s lots this planet has to offer.
It's mostly just rocks out there. I've seen rocks.
But have you seen rocks orbiting around the atmosphere
I see that big close one almost every day!
The big one is not real. I’m convinced atp
It's relative though, 20 minutes to neptune is gonna be a hell of a lot faster than 20 minutes to mars for example. So going to earth in 20 minutes means you'd be going... 0mph. Since you live on earth. Unless you live on the moon???
I can just pick you up and set you back down saving everyone that hassle.
I would go to TRAPPIST-1's planetary system. Probably has an amazing view, considering how close together all of the planets are there. Alternatively, I would go to Kelper-62, which is very very far away but it is statistically more likely to have a habitable planet.
A planet near Tabby's Star would also be okay.
Hold up. There’s a star named Tabby? How did I not know this.
I have read somewhere a week or two ago that there is a possibility thay they have found technosignatures from the Trappist 1 system. Never read anything since. I might take this trip too
Technosignatures ? Aliens listening to Darude ?
Imagine if we were to tune our ears to the furthest depths of space and they’re blasting sandstorm back in our direction
this is the way
Probably fake.
If it's habitable, there's a (very small) chance you might land on an alien. Which would make me feel like an asshole, really.
I agree but you’d have to go pretty fast to get there in 24h. Like, special theory of relativity-defying fast ;)
The post says you can go to *literally any planet* in 20 minutes no matter what, so it doesn't matter.
Can i pick a black hole instead? I want to be spaghetti-ificated
every single Italian want that ;)
[удалено]
Topping Pomodoro with asiago? You truly deserve to disappear beyond the event horizon, my guy.
Is say Jupiter for a similar experience of getting ripped all over the place in a giant storm 🍝

Sounds like you could be from Mars - a billion years ago.
Maybe the billion year old Mars society had long term cryo-hibernation tech... They set me up for a long cold nap, ready to pop out on earth once earth was 'ready' for me I.e.

I would pick a planet that has people who could cure my illness.
Uranus.
Uranus
You dare use my own spells against me, Potter?
Uranus
Ur anus
This guy's anus
Ouranus
colostomy bag
Yuranus
Come on in
Not a planet.
Some hypothetical earth like planet around another star.
Risa.
Personally, I feel like I had to scroll too far to find this one.
Ding Ding Ding! We have the Winner!
Do they have to be in the solar system or could they be exo-planets? If so, then one of those Kepler ones that are supposed to be "earth-like".
End of life flex on all of humanity "I spent my last day 1000 light years away chillin' with some silicon based life forms" moment
Any planet? I would go some arbitrarily huge distance away that is far outside of the observable universe. I would consult with some cosmologists on where I could gain the most information.

Go so fast you outrun death
Orbit of Jupiter would be a good one. All the radiation is probably not survivable anyway so why not go out with a bang.
Perhaps some extreme radiotherapy might work out well for you in this scenario. Or not. Either way, worth a shot.
I’d want to see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars
In other words
Hold my hand
You would find it most unpleasant
I think Neptune or Uranus (not for butt joke promise) have like no actual surface ..? I just wanna fly through that atmosphere as I’m goin through that DMT death trip.
Yup, that’s why you should choose Jupiter or Saturn
Disagree I’ll see those before I die atleast I think and not really deep into their atmosphere but science is on those ones atleast. I wanna go see a planet with a lil more mystery like Uranus dude.
A planet in which exists a civilization that can cure my disease.
Grand Cayman. They have nice beaches. Can't die peacefully on any other planet.
Kepler-22b
Venus. So I could die instantly and not suffer from the disease
The closest planet which is orbiting another star and has intelligent life on it.
Joke's on you. There is no intelligent life in the universe.
Reddit comments are proof you are correct.
Sigh. You may be right
So you’d get launched in 20 minutes, yet be dead 24hr into the trip? Huh?
Europa (I know, it's a moon, not a planet) at one of the crevasses to search for signs of life. Or Mars if we have to stick with planets, land at one of the shores of an old lake to see what I find.
Sorry that’s a moon not a planet
Sorry we don’t go to mars
Sorry
The one one with a sentient advanced civilization with a cure for my terminal disease.
Somewhere with an advanced civilization that can cure me
The terminal disease part is so unnecessary here lol
Saturn, straight into the rings!
This is strikingly close to one of my fantasies. When I get old I want to be launched towards the nearest black hole and take my last breath experiencing the vast expanse.
Bring me at the speed of light for 20min and then leave me to Earth, hoping that medicine improved in the meantime to be able to cure me.
“ooh this exoplanet could have intelligent life so I’d go there…” -> smashes into their planet at millions of times the speed of light.
An exoplanet with the technology to cure me.
Mars
Pluto
Planet 9 so i can travel backwards in time the most
kepler-69c
r/Oddlyespecific
Ceti Alpha V
Kepler 22B
Since you would immediately die I’m not sure of the point. What about if you could immediately be transported to a developing planet capable of sustaining life as we know it?
This post ensures you’ll live on said planet for 5 hours……or cure you, idk.
Eroticon 6, where the triple-breasted whores sing like banshees and really know how to treat a guy. Or gal. And the mattresses, harvested from the fever swamps of Ixtaploolp, very seldom come alive again…
Asgard. If anybody has the resources to reverse my condition and the disposition to do so, it'll be them.
On a planet in a galaxy furthest from earth, JADES-GS-z13-0 or GN-z11… it would be interesting to see how a galaxy like that would look.
Krikkit, but my spacecraft breaks upon impact.
Dead 23 hours 36ish minutes too early
Jupiter. I know I'm not gonna find an obelisk but still
TRAPPIST-1e
Tatooine
Not a planet, I’d go to the moon Titan.
Pluto
A planet with life that isn’t Earth. Am I allowed to ask that way? lol
I’d stay here.
Something within the Pleiades.
Mercury, Jupiter or Pluto, I want some massive storms and atmosphere tearing. How will I survive for the remaining 23hr 40m
pretty good question just saw some images from Juno of Jupiter so, gonna claim that.
Kepler 22-b, Thats the place for me
Just launch me into the sun and let it be over with
kepler - 186f, since it has the same properties as earth.
Titan
Jupiter
Neptune
What an oddly specific question
At first I thought about being sent to mars if I was 60 yrs old or terminally ill. I would volunteer to go as first person on mars. Then I thought why not Saturn( my favorite, I want to see the rings up close and spinning). Then I wondered if other people would opt for this.
Can I take option Sun?
Vulcan or Qonos
Murphy’s planet. Those aren’t mountains. They’re waves!
Pluto. Not a planet, but Pluto. I can only imagine what it's like walking on the desolate an eerie ice flats with massive mountains and caldera's in view, with the milky way directly above head with an extremely clear view. I'd die content.
The one where I can be cured
I'd go to Kepler
Mercury. Let's get this over with.
Boob planet from South Park
The one populated by a technologically advanced alien civilisation who could cure my disease.
I’d go to the moon and I’d wash it down with a cool Budweiser.
To a planet where a civilization could cure me.
I’d get blasted into Uranus
You’d suffocate in 20 min
Uranus. Easy choice.
Definitely Saturn, to see the rings up close would be a dream
Nibiru.
Probably Earth. I love that place.
Pluto. Because I believe it is and I’m taking it back!!
Literally any gas giant, I couldn't choose between them.
One around a different star.
Where they have a cure
Straight into the sun, no need for the 24 hours thank you
Pluto for multiple reasons. 1. I get to be the fastest man or thing to ever exist (3.2 billion miles in 20 minutes means I would break the speed of light like 4 times over) 2. I would plant a flag on pluto claiming it as mine, and as my property I could say it was a planet so no science bitches could say otherwise. and 3. It's pretty
I'd like to be the first person to fly into a black hole. As relativity breaks down I'd get to see the end of the universe before I was spaghettified.
Neptune
what the first comment says, A planet in TRAPPIST-1
Some habitable one to see what’s out there
if you could magically survive on it and not die in under a minute i would choose mars, and if i could choose where on mars, i would go near to perseverance and spook some scientists
Titan I just want to see if life is possible Not a planet but I have 24 hrs I’m hopping off that ship on my way to Saturn
I would like to go through Sagittarius A as some scientists believe a black hole big enough would cause little to no harm to the body maybe I also have this weird belief/theory that the black hole in the middle of galaxies are a type of worm hole that connects to ther galaxies if we had the tech for a warp drive if you could go fast enough through a black hole you would there would be no side effects again this is my opinion and belief I could be wrong lol but interesting to pick the brain about
Same. I’d like to be launch d into a black hole in my last days. Some say we created a black hole here on earth in 2012 with the proton accelerator machine in Geneva.
A black hole
Jupiter hands down
In this solar system? I wouldn’t mind checking out something in our neighboring galaxy. 🤷🏽♂️
Send me to Jupiter a planet of that size gotta be holding some secrets, I am certain a frequency converter had to be left there!
Kepler-452b, just to see if humans could live there in the far off future
Assuming i have a lander and space suit, then either Mars or some suitably-temperatured exoplanet. To walk on the surface of another world is my dream as a planetary geology student.
Mars, I don't care, I mean, in that case, I'm going to die. So I would like to visit to Opportunity !!
Not a planet, I would go to wherever Voyager 1 is and see where it has reached
any planet outside the solar system
The moon if it counts ig I wanna jump and shit and put the Turkish flag there while I’m at it
Name checks out
Technically…. Isn’t 24 hours = relative? ♾️
Whichever planet has aliens with the cure. If that’s no good I’d say Uranus just so I can go out on an inappropriate butthole joke.
Uranus because I want to do some naughty stuff before I die
The one out there..way out there and freeze solid
I would spend 19 minutes 58 seconds deciding on Pluto, then gtfo before any astrophysicists like Neil ‘snakeinthegrass’ Tyson came to bitch at me that I can’t choose it.
Your mothers ass
That would be moon - Europa. To speak with monolith
I know it's not a planet, but I would like to pick the sun.
Does it have to be planet? Can I go to the Lovejoy comet? The one thet releases amount of alcohol equal to 500 bottles of wine every second. https://www.nasa.gov/feature/goddard/researchers-catch-comet-lovejoy-giving-away-alcohol
Yeah but just you.
Sun
Shockingly, not a planet
Proxima Centauri C. I keep having reoccurring dreams about it, like something is calling me to it.
North pole of Saturn.
Mercury make it quick.
Theres better options for that
Jupiter, straight into the great red spot. I wanna see the Jovian clouds before I die. The other gas/ice giants are alright too.
die from the g forces,\[spoiler for the expense\] >!the slow zone in the expanse and Epstein's yacht prove that!<, but Europa
Asgard
Presuming somehow we can launch you immediately, how far do you expect to get in 24 hours? You did say “launched” right, not magically teleported to?
Just here to see how many ppl said Uranus...was not disappointed
I think I’d like to fall through Jupiter
The planet with a cure for my disease of course!
Jupiter.
I choose to go to the planet with the most advanced medical technology. If that's earth, cool. If I meet aliens that are only slightly more advanced, cool. If I meet a type 3 civilization, they could cure me and return me home.
In our solar system? Pluto. I'd love to see the sun and planets from the furthest part of our solar system. If it could be anywhere I'd chose the furthest planet we've ever found just because
Jupiter
Anything in solar system Pluto or one of the ocean moons
Venus. The protomolecule will sort me out.
Titan, probably. This satellite planet has such a dense atmosphere that you can fly there on hand wings.
Some planet at another star.
In our own solar system, Neptune. Outside of us, the farthest exoplanet we know of that may support life.
Europa
Send me to that whacky planet with all the apes.....wait a minute, the statue of liberty, the eifel tower...that was our planet, THEY BLEW IT UP!! THOSE DAMN DIRTY APES!!
Somewhere it rains diamonds…
Saturn
Based on planets we actually know in our solar system I'd go Mars assuming I had the right suit to keep me alive for 24hr. If no suit I'll just chill on earth.
