Its a very interesting theme and I hope I can withness it before I die. We could really SEE exoplanet topography. Sure with our economy right now its unlikely but maybe we will see a growth like in the 50s/60s in our lifetime.

I want to go stand on a star

have you seen the moving knowing or ...hmm that other scifi sun movie that was out a few years ago where they had to shoot a bomb into the sun? Dont think you want to :P

Although I can only imagine standing on a frozen diamond planet would be slippery! You could just slide around the whole planet! How fun!


That would be fun but kinda scary too. I don't know about that one. Would make for a legit game of ice hockey in outer space if you could skate on a frozen diamond planet.

Makes me think of old 50's - 70's sci fi books and stories!

That would be the ultimate endurance sport! Ice hockey on planet diamond! Be there!


Soooo much fun! There would be crazy hits in low gravity!
