This is for EarthSolar:

Pasithea, in the Orion's Arm Iota Piscium system, looks like it has liquid water on its surface. It's much too cold for liquid water, so what is this? Some other liquid? Is the planet terraformed? If so, how is it kept at a comfortable temperature? I am confused...


Maybe add a short description of Pasithea to the Iota Piscium article?

Oh, Pasithea's surface was flooded by liquid nitrogen. The idea came from the discovery of what appears to be frozen ponds of liquid nitrogen on Pluto, and also Triton in Orion's Arm. I'm not sure what an ocean of nitrogen would look like, so I went with ocean blue.

Okay. Maybe the article should say that.
