My favorite planet is Saturn. The rings are just super cool, and now they have been photographing Saturn's moons. Of which, one might have a bunch of ice. Very cool.

My favorite dinosaur is the Stegosaurus. It's got those cool plates which scientists try to creatively figure out why they have 'em. Some say it's to protect them. Others explain that the plates cool 'em off. And then in the 80s when I was in grade school, I remember scientists saying that they were solar panels, cuz solar energy was all the rage then. Solar panels! On a dinosaur. Coolest dinosaur ever!

Is a Coelacanth a dinosaur? If so, the mighty Coelacanth, an expert at hiding out! Otherwise, it's all about the sweet n' gentle Brontosaurus for me.

As for planets, they are all pretty great, but Venus never fails to intrigue me -- so close, but so mysterious what with that ammonia-ice-vapor cloud thing, shrouding the Venusian palaces in perpetual mystery. Ahhhhhhh.

Mars
I dig the rovers. Go Freedom! Go Freedom!

Triceratops or Stegosaurus or T-Rex
At times the triceratops looks so freakin' bad a55 (but it looks lame in your illustration).
The stegosaurus toys are always interesting.
It's hard to deny the flat-out coolness of the T-Rex.
If I had to pick just one dinosaur, I'd go with Godzilla.

Though I'd tell you what. It would be so incredibly incredubulous to see a pterodactyl flying in the sky. I might have to with with the pterodactyl.

Stegosaurus because it would swing it's tail around and spike things. My favorite dinobot. :D

I'm kinda partial to Earth. But if I had to choose a different one, I'd say Venus because it's the morning star.

My favorite planet is Uranus. It's my ruling planet. So, why not!

My favorite dinosaur is the Stegosaurus. In college, we all had dinosaur nicknames and my best friend was "Stegachippy"!

I'm partial to the ichthyosaurus--I like big sea creatures.

Naturally I also like Neptune the most. The misty blue color is fascinating, and it's the sea god's planet!

Uranus. Just because.

Hey! It won't me vote for the one whose name also means "lazy". It says my comment contains something strange or not allowed.

I like that the cavepeople named it that millions of years before English was invented, so they couldn't even know how appropriate the name was.
