Just send the Netherlands to Q292640261046a, they’ll make quick work of all the water.

I've always been a fan of "Slickle", the Carbon planet covered in grease and diamonds.

I don't remember where I saw it, but I watched a video about different exo-planets. One that stuck out to me was a planet that had miles of ice but possibly also a liquid water ocean underneath. If intelligent life evolved down there, they would probably have no clue about the wider universe and think their world is all that exists. Imagine such a being's reaction if they ever drilled up through the ice. I feel like this could be turned into a good sci-fi book.

You might be interested in the movie Europa Report. It's not about an exoplanet but I think it fits.

My immediate thought was wondering how they'd forge metal for a drill while underwater

Lmao gottem

Is that… it’s actual name?

Also. Molten uranium? I assume you’re not talking about the depressingly unradioactive stuff?

Can we contrive some means of marooning billionaires there?

I don't think any of these are planets.

Though one interesting thing is that Ligma was actually the name of a company incorporated in England and Wales that provided IT consulting services.

It has the company number: 12243748. Google the company number and see for yourself.

Also Google their sister company. Company number: 11933362
