I live on astronomy. And that's perhaps why people are surprised when I say I'm not an enthusiastic supporter of space colonization.
I'm not at all, I just can't be.
And I am not just referring to exploring planetary systems of other stars, whose distances are and will forever be absolutely insurmountable regardless of our technological capability. No, gentlemen...I am also decidedly skeptical about the possibility of our species establishing bases or colonies on our home planets!
Follow me, I’ll tell you why!

Mercury
The closest planet to the Sun. Minimum distance from Earth: 91 million kilometers. Diameter of 4880 km. No atmosphere, poor water ice reserves. Gravity: 38% of that of Earth. Surface temperature: -180 to 430°C. The local day lasts 88 Earth days.
Venus
Minimum distance from Earth: 42 million kilometers. Diameter: 12100 km. Gravity: 90% of Earth's.
Moon
Closest body. The average distance from Earth is 384,000 km. Diameter 3400 km. The atmosphere is absent. Gravity: 16.7% of Earth's. Surface temperature: -153 to 123°C. The local day lasts almost 30 of our days.
Ceres
The largest object in the main asteroid belt. The minimum distance from Earth is 265 million kilometers. Diameter: 940 km. Gravity: 3% of Earth's. The atmosphere is absent. The average surface temperature of -106°C.
Europa
Fourth largest of Jupiter's moons. Minimum distance from Earth of 630 million kilometers. Diameter of 3120 km. Gravity: 13% of Earth's. Average surface temperature: -240 °C. Atmosphere virtually absent.
Titan
Saturn's largest satellite. Minimum distance from Earth of 1280 million kilometers. Diameter of 5150 km. Gravity: 14% of Earth's. Average temperature: -180°C. The atmosphere of nitrogen and methane. Ground atmospheric pressure: 1.5 times Earth's.
Pluto
Dwarf planet in the Kuiper belt. Minimum distance from Earth: 5800 million kilometers. Diameter: 2380 km. Gravity: 6% of Earth's. The average temperature of -230°. Extremely rarefied methane atmosphere.
