Which planet do you think would be easiest for humans to colonize?

Well, Mercury is too hot and there are deadly cosmic rays from the Sun, there.
Venus is the right size, but is far too hot (800 degrees, F) and has a deadly atomosphere.
Mars has no atmosphere, but it does have water in the form of ice, and the surface does not appear to be harmful. If there are any microbes living on Mars, they could be deadly to humans, but none have yet been found.
The rest of the planets are gas giants: there is no land on them; however, some of their satellites (moons) may well be suitable for humans. Jupiter's Ganymede and Europa come to mind . . .
So, probably the easiest would be Mars, simply because it is closest to Earth.

∙ 9y agoThe natural satellite of Earth, called "Luna" or "Moon" would be the easiest to colonize, but then, it is not a planet.
The easiest true planet to colonize would have to be Mars. Mercury and Venus are too hot, Jupiter and Saturn are composed of gas, which colonists could not stand upon, and Neptune and Uranus are far too cold.
There is a natural satellites orbiting Jupiter called "Europa", that could possibly be colonized - there is plenty of water under this moon's ice shell, and it is warmed by to a degree by geothermal heat from the rocks and magma in this moon's center portion. (This heat would result from the tidal forces exerted by Jupiter upon Europa, but that is for another time.)
But let's stick with Mars . . . it has water and enough of the Sun's energy to perhaps support plant life. (For food).

However the chances of anyone arriving at Mars alive are very small because the nuclear radiation in space reaches very dangerous levels that are extremely difficult to guard against.

Why is it important for humans to explore other planets besides the earth?
i think that humans will need to colonize to other planets in the future because if green house affects continue and people continue to pollute the world as they are, the earth could become a nasty and dangerous place to live and it will not be very suitable to sustain life anymore.

What planet is the easiest planet to put in a science poster?
I personally think that Saturn would be the easiest and the most interesting. Saturn naturally does not have many significant swirls or islands, so it is one giant blob of tan-ish orange. Just make a ring of old looking paper to make it seem like a ring, and Ta-da! Saturn.
