finally someone has published what i have been thinking for like 5 years. global warming has nothing to do with us and our emissions its us getting sucked into the sun. look at the planet they think had life, mars. and where is it the next closes to the sun. hmmm the farther you go out from the sun the less dense the planets are, the closer the more they are. im willing to bet that once we get to the point where we cant live here anymore we will be moving to the next planet out.

Ummm...

Sun
Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars...

And, the four inner planets are about the same average density, Mars being less so, Jupiter less than that, Saturn less than that, but then the densities increase from Uranus to Pluto (Pluto having the highest density of the outer 5 planets).

That's what THEY say, but I grew up thinking of Pluto as a planet, and I will likely grow old that way as well.

Planet, not planet, I don't lose any sleep.

Ditto that buddy. I'm lucky I spelled it right. Although I did use my glasses to see the lable.

I'm thinking along the same lines as littleme13 it's not global warming,it's the sun expanding and cooking solar system in the process warming. (except I know which order the planets are in )
