I think that the next planet explored should be Mars because it is known by everyone and it is next on the line if we shoot for the stars we might just end up far from home but if shoot for a certain spot then we might just find something incredible!

Saturn would be nice to at least check out to see the rings up close, but it would be hard to survive there I suppose.

Honestly, I'd say Europa and find out what's under that ice. There has to be "life" there. Plus who wouldn't want to know what is under that ice!

Since we just discovered live plant/animals below Antarctica icecap, I was hoping to have a lander on Jupiter's moon, Europa, to see if it has any cousins there.

A seemingly logical next step - Enceladus. Sufficiently aged at over 1 billion years, with a reasonably stable orbit, the moon has an abundance of both water and heat. Its global ocean enshrouded in ice regularly spews forth towering geysers of water and carbon based molecules...methane, nitrogen, hydrogen. 'Beam-me-over' Scotty, this moon is the best bet for finding life, and well, we already know how to get there.

Venus could be a great choice if possible, to study greenhouse effect and to put a solar observatory in orbit!

I think I would love to see Saturn explored next. The rings alone are extraordinary! More of a study on them then just a fly over / fly by.

I would love for Venus to be explored. It would be a great leap in discovery as getting past its atmosphere and its tremndous heat (at 393 °C ) would be a huge leap in science. In addition, there have been discoveries of possible life forms. It would be interesting to see if this rumored life exists, and if it does, how it functions in a poisonous environment, and how scientist can emulate it for a possible home.

Jupiter should be explored because it is next. We have gone to the moon, are exploring Mars, and Jupiter would be the next stop on eventually leaving our solar system.

After Mars, citizens of the planet Earth should next explore the terrestrial planet of Venus, our next closest planetary neighbor.

Saturn's icy ocean moon Enceladus should be our next outreach goal. That or Jupiter's Icy Moons. Go NASA - Go ESA - Go JAXA!

I think we need to make more successful trips to Mars, and work on being able to send humans to explore / study Mars. Probes to other planets would be cool too.
