Which planet/moon do you think is the least visited in the community? I personally think that it's Dres.

I did not include: Kerbin (for an obvious reason), Mun, Minmus, Duna, Jool, and Laythe, since they seem to be very popular, and that the poll limit is 10.

NOTE: I think that Dres may become more popular if/when Squad implements an asteroid field. There would be some very pretty and nice views from Dres with a ton of asteroids floating about.

Been to Dres once (with an unmanned probe too). Nothing to see there, just did a mission for science. This small horrible spit of rock... I only hope it will become a part of an asteroid belt in future versions.

Poor Dres... the canyon is pretty cool. I like the fact there are a few bodies of similar appearance

By visited, do you mean landed on, orbit, or merely a flyby?

If landed on, I would say Tylo. (Dat Gravity)

If any or all of the above, I would agree with the OP and say Dres.

People see Eeloo as a challenge so that's visited by many people. Dres is like a Junior challenge to Eeloo.

By visit I mean intentionally entering the planet/moon 's SOI.

The only Jool moon I've been to recently is Laythe and that was a simple flyby because it only cost me 10m/s to divert to go through it's SOI. I haven't landed on any of them.

Nor have I landed on Moho. Everything else I've been to at least once, in some version or another.

Dress has quite a cool landscape, I visited a few times.

I guess Tylo. Jool has a lot of other cool moons to visit, and landing and getting off again is quite difficult.

Maybe Moho too. It is the hardest planet. But it is still a planet.

Vall's the only body I haven't visited, mainly because I haven't seen a compelling reason to go there. There aren't really any easter eggs (in response to those of you who say Moho, I quite enjoy trying to land at the bottom of the Mohole), and it's not that much of a challenge compared to something like Tylo or Dres.

Oh, there's an easter egg on Vall alright...you just haven't looked hard enough. Believe me, there's one, and it's pretty cool.

I put Gilly simply because it's the only body I've never visited for some reason, even though Eve was the first planet I ever visited.

Gilly is now an important source of cheap science points in the career mode. You can aerobrake directly into Gilly transfer orbit and effortlessly land there with the whole interplanetary stage without the need of any specialized lander, lift off, and go for second aerobrake to low eve orbit. hundreds of cheap science points at additional 500 or so dV cost.
