By far, my favorite scenario is Saturn's moon, Titan: An Internal-Combustion-Engined vehicle on Earth has a fuel tank and generates mechanical power by combining fuel with ambient oxygen. The converse would be true on Titan: the atmosphere (which is about half the density of Earth's, by the way) contains no oxygen but plenty of methane. So, conceptually, you could carry an oxygen tank instead of a fuel tank and burn the methane fuel in the ambient air! In reality, Titan's atmosphere is roughly 95% nitrogen and just about 5% methane, thus getting the stoichiometry correct may need some effort, but there is a good probability it is doable.
Maybe possible, but not really practical, given the fact that you can't refuel (tank new oxygen) like on earth. When you solve that, we can probably live on Titan 😂

A plane is a submarine for our specific mixture of atmospheric gasses, any plane for another planet would need to be able to change it's flight characteristics to handle different compositions.
thank you! i noticed that too, it seems that a lot of science youtubers are taking inspiration from (or copying) randall munroe, and he's not getting any credit 😭
For natural satellites, Titan, Saturn's moon is the ideal place to employ air transportation due to thick atmosphere and low gravity compared to earth's gravity
I absolutely adore Cleo and these videos, she does such an amazing job at making science appealing to all ages. Your optimism is such a breath of fresh air please never stop 🖤
Not in the atmosphere. If you were actually flying *on* the planets, yeah maybe, but not when you're flying *around* the planets in their respective atmospheres
@Tgrov the atmosphere has to be dense enough to push through to escape gravity. You have to have enough atmosphere to achieve optimal lift to negate gravity essentially. Venus and Mars are smaller than earth do the gravity would be less important than the density of the air. You have to work harder because there's less to push off of. Think of it almost like swimming. You only have to work so hard because you're less dense than water but if you're denser than the fluid around you you have to work harder to stay up. This isn't entirely accurate comparison but it's hard to explain. You could also look at it like doing a pushup. On solid ground it's easier, but the less dense and compressive the material you try to push off of the harder it becomes, meaning you have to exert more to do it.
If you want a more in-depth explanation, you can find one in chapter 25 in Randal Monroe's book What If? Serious Scientific Answers to absurd Hypothetical Questions. It is called interplanetary Cessna if you want to listen to it on audible.
On Venus it depends on your elevation though. If you go high enough it’s basically like earth. The air is less dense, and a lot of that heat is gone. Reasonable enough to where a human could walk around with an air tank without protection from temperatures or anything else. The near earth like conditions are why since the 1960s both the US and Russia have had vague plans for buoyant cities floating on dense Venus clouds as if they were water while avoiding the issues with temperature and air density at ground level, while at the same time being elevated above the acidic clouds and rains.
Yes! Randall pointed out how Titan is almost an ideal case for flight... thick atmosphere, relatively light gravity, you could PEDAL a flying machine. The main problem is that Titan is f***ing COLD!
Several factors (this is my brain on power saving mode so it's around the same validity of drunken rambling) - Propulsion method - atmosphere density and composition - Airframe of choice Let's say we choose a planet like idk Mars Anything turbo or oxygen requiring wouldn't even start do electric it is Propeller is the best option Gonna need big wing area for light plane
The answer is: "Define "another planet" first." Depending on the gravity, air pressure, and weather patterns (or lack thereof) each specific planet has its own characteristics that affect flight. Even if you assume you're talking about a simple unpowered glider... or one of NASA's experimental rocket-powered aircraft, how the plane performs will depend WHICH other planet you put it on.
Another great short that I learned something from. Unlike the oure entertainment and brainrot shorts you can't learn anything from. Thanks again Cleo for this short!
@RK13_18 It will always be a planet in my heart. In fact, lets give all dwarf planets full planet status because Ceres should be a planet too! I want 200 planets in this solar system!
Titan would be the best. As Randall Munroe pointed-out, one could fly using their own muscle power. The effort required might be less than is required for walking on Earth.
A curious question from an engineer, since Mach number depends on density, what would the Mach 1 speed be on Mars? Interesting video as always Cleo, by the way, I'm currently making a 3D game about space and physics, it would be interesting to simulate the atmosphere of Mars. Will post some videos about it early next year! Happy New Year!
NASA flew the Ingenuity helicopter (technically not a plane, but still) on Mars, and it’s top speed was 22 miles/hour. So you don’t need to go super fast to be ably to fly on Mars.
She's super heavily exaggerating it but ingenuity is a helicopter so it's top speed has nothing to do with lift, you'd have to check it's rotor speed instead.
@@Voschane True, the rotors are generating the lift, but I already implied that in my comment that it’s not a plane. I could not easily find how many rpm the rotors of Ingenuity did go, but there are so many technical limitations that I don’t think they would go super fast.
If flying on Mars with its low gravity, it would only make sense to use vertical thrust, like the ingenuity helicopter or a space-x reusable rocket. If you must use a jet, use a harrier.
For mars id rather use long low performance fuselage braced wings and a turbofan but it would still be hard especially with the air intake being low and well yes gas Nice and accurate video🎉
Depending on the mass of the planet, you’re flying the plane on it will rather fly or come crashing down for example if we tried flying a plane on Jupiter, you would immediately crash down due to its excessive mass, but if you flew a plane on something like Pluto it most likely would be easier to fly the plane and most likely float more
I am absolutely not an expert but I am guessing it would be very feasible since titan has a similar atmosphere to earth( I think it's just a bit thicker).
randall munroe covered titan in his book What If, which is where this idea seems to have originally came from! he said that on titan, it would be possible to fly a human powered plane :3
No, Titan is the best place in the Solar System. It is very similar to Earth, except it's extremely cold and very different. It has a very dense atmosphere, so it's extremely easy to fly simply using a hot air balloon. And it has plenty of water and methane, so energy is not a big issue at all and you can simply melt water and let it freeze into a structure that's probably as strong as granite on Earth, which means it's extremely easy to build there. Titan is probably the easiest place for us to live outside of Earth. It's just difficult to get there. Everything else should be easy as pie. Everyone forgets Titan! :(
I'm not quite satisfied with the reasoning for the Mars explanation. That being, speed of sound increases as density decreases (100 times less dense air would multiply the speed of sound by a factor of 10, ignoring changes in compressiblity constant). With the 5 seconds of info here, I would think that the plane would be flying faster to achieve enough lift, but still won't be supersonic given Mars's increased speed of sound, so you might not have to worry about controlling a supersonic aircraft.
Of all the planets, Venus seems like the one actively trying to avoid having life on it. The rest would like to have company over but just can't. Venus went out of its way to make sure nothing can live there.
I also tought about the viscosity from the oder gases. On mars you would have less resistans to reach march one, so it‘s easier to accelerate. And on Venus (lets just asume that the plane is out of a supermaterial that withstands the atmosphere) the acceleration force would be so huge! Because the viscosity of fluids builts up squared. So yeah quite cool question.
I think it depends on that planet's gravitational acceleration and the atmospheric density. Also the presence of oxygen if you have air breathing engines.
Easiest place for flying a plane in our solar system is Titan, where gravity is low and the athmosphere dense. In his book "What if" Randall Monroe claims that the power of your muscles would be sufficient to fly a Cessna.
You would have to fly at Mach 1 on Mars to get enough lift? So you'd have to fly 308 km/h faster than a commercial aircraft on Earth. That's extremely manageable compared to ANY problem with other planets.
The strong winds and cold air etc...,are good examples but u forgot about gravity Jupiter is massive, about 1300 earths can fit inside it,so gravity should be the first concern,other factors should be second😊❤🎉

Easiest place for flying a plane in our solar system is Titan, where gravity is low and the athmosphere dense. In his book "What if" Randall Monroe claims that the power of your muscles would be sufficient to fly a Cessna.
What really depends on the gravity like if it was on Mars if it just crashed the ground, but if it was on the moon, it would rise
A guy that I forgot his name accidentally flew his plane in to space because of two minor malfunctions
If you had a solar sail you could make a "plane" fly through Mercury's "atmosphere", kinda
The question is at what altitude the atmospheric pressure would be just right to fly a plane on different planets.
