Hi. I'm a producer at BBC Three Counties Radio (covering Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire), and I need help with a question asked by one of our listeners. He wants to know, HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO VISIT EACH OF THE PLANETS IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM IN TURN? We have been challenged to find the answer on the Net. I think I can guess at what *an* answer might be - there would seem to be certain variables - but would anyone be kind enough to: a) tell us the answer; b) give us an inspired and possibly even entertaining alternative; or c) add some (helpful) comments, either serious or even a bit frivolous. Please, please e-mail any response to me at work - pipe@nc.bbc.co.uk - indicating whether your answer is known to be correct or just plain good-natured fun. We're doing this as part of Science Week in the UK. If we decide we'd like to talk to you on air, I'll e-mail you and ask. You can reply any way you like Thanks, with love from Auntie ..... -- Simon Pipe
