      I’d really like to visit a circumbinary planet so that I could see two sunsets! Unfortunately, we haven’t discovered a rocky one yet, so most of them would be inhospitable gas giants. Maybe next year, we will find one. Then my answer would be that!

      I’d bring my wife 🙂 And maybe some food…

      Europa, which is one of the moons of Jupiter. It’s covered in ice, but we think there’s liquid water underneath the ice. I’d love to find out if there’s life in there.

      I’d bring a spaceship, and a very big, but also very clean, drill. I wouldn’t want to accidentally pollute Europa with life from Earth.

      I’d like to live on Jupiter — floating around in its atmosphere. I’d bring an unlimited supply of oxygen (Breathing rocks!), a hammock, and my imagination. Plus the ENTIRE Vorkosigan Saga–reading a space opera series while *in* space sounds cool. And I’d bring a camera to see if I could take photos of Jupiter’s rings close up!
