Women’s “stinking pheromones” are preventing boys from going to Jupiter to get more stupider

Oh God, just the fantasy of incels leaving the planet has made my day; not sure why those other groups would want to go with them though

Please don’t let the spaceship door hit your ass on the way out. Bye!

Look, if I could dry up my sexual urges on command I would have made fewer mistakes in my life.

Edit: that rant was so vapid I forgot the obligatory, “women are the ones who sent humans to the moon, you uneducated q-tip.”

Yes, land on a planet with no solid surface. If only those feeemales and their evil pheromones were gone, that metallic hydrogen mantle could’ve been landed on!

Not gonna name names, but some Mammotheers are attempting to discourage this would-be space traveler. Something about no solid surface on his favorite planet, etc., etc. Don’t try to talk him out of his plan. Let this intrepid incel blast off in a rocket he made with his own two hands. Please.

Maybe we could have floating cities in the atmosphere?

I would be so up for that; especially if Billy Dee Williams was mayor.

It would be a fantastic engineering challenge; but I can’t see any theoretical impossibilities. You could use hot hydrogen as a buoyancy source.

I’d like to keep Europa uncontaminated by humans; it might be our best opportunity for studying non earth life. Titan might be a good place for us though. It’s pretty much got an atmosphere ripe for terraforming.

@Alan Robertshaw
Titan seems like a good place. I recall Randall Munroe discussed its properties in his book What If? and its associated website had a section on flying airplanes there (towards the end of the linked article). Regarding Europa, I understand your desire to leave it uncontaminated, and I agree that we probably shouldn’t mess with it. For the cities, I would think that the atmosphere is our best bet, as any solid surface on Jupiter itself would be under a thick and heavy atmosphere. The gravity would still be a problem, as Jupiter has higher gravity than Earth and humans might struggle with that, but maybe we could have exoskeletons that would help us.

@Weird Eddie
As requested:

I would like to suggest that incels and mgtows build a spaceship and fly directly into the big red spot.

It would be an exciting way for incels to finally contribute something positive to humanity.

Could they take the no-fappers too?

I could have sworn they said that impressing women was the reason men tried to go to space in the first place.

@Alan Robertshaw
Titan’s not really a good terraforming prospect for the next five billion years or so. It’s so far out that the greenhouse gas effect could not hope to keep its surface warm and still breathable for human life, and the only way to get around that limitation is to use horrendous amounts of giant Solar mirrors in what is really an physically inconvenient planetary system where they’d be constantly perturbed. Mars already represents an extreme end of the circumstellar habitable zone despite being an average of 1.5 AUs away from the Sun, whereas Saturn is no less than 9 AUs away! Though the inner boundary is in the process of being redefined, and there have been several papers published in the last few years that have Venus being well within the habitable zone. Depending on its history, Venus could’ve been Earth-like at one point or perhaps more like Dune or (more plausibly) Kharak, albeit with very long days or possible tidally locked.

@Naglfar
Jupiter doesn’t have a solid surface as people commonly understand it. Rather, its atmosphere gradually transitions to a liquid-ish mantle of metallic hydrogen, the rotation of which is responsible for Jupiter’s enormous freaking magnetic field and, ultimately, its super-powered Van Allen Belts of Death. The closest thing to a solid surface is a possibly rocky and icy core, but planetary scientists aren’t even sure if Jupiter has a solid core in the first place! We also can’t make metallic hydrogen in a lab, either, and this is all the more a shame given that there have been tantalizing hints that it may even be a high temperature superconductor.

At any rate, if you could find a way to stave off the radiation threat, you could also use the Jovian field as a resource to be used. This is something that’s sparked interest for propulsion and electricity generation in Earth orbit (and several orbital tests at that), and I imagine the Jovian fields would probably be more productive. This would be particularly important given the lackluster Solar output at Jupiter’s orbit, which is on average more than five times the distance from the Sun to the Earth.

@Scolar Visari
Interesting. I knew that the nature of the core was strange, but I didn’t know much more than that. Thank you for explaining.

When I mentioned Titan, I know we don’t currently have the ability to terraform it, but maybe one day. I still like the idea of cloud cities, but I did recognize that it’s probably impossible. I was suggesting it as a theoretical idea, putting it out there. It was the first idea that came to mind when I thought about colonizing Jupiter.

In short, I know these are all highly implausible. I just like thinking about all the theoretical ideas. That and reading too much science fiction.
