Hypothetical Bodies

[Janus]

@Joey.P

RE:Vulcanoids.
Your post reminded me something I hadn't thought of in years.
For laughs.
In a world I created for one of my many unfinished books, Starting is easy, finishing is hard, very hard.


Anyway, I posited, then tried to make a case for Mercury being the core of a now extinct small gas giant.
Starting off midway between neptune/uranus and Saturn in size.
Forming very early, perhaps with the sun, very close, 30-45 day orbit initially.
Then being warmed by the sun inflating it while light pressure pushed it slowly outward until its gassy mantle was gone.
Leaves it in place for early bombardment while clearing out the inner system of nearly everything.
I got stuck on plot and explaining how Venus as its moon got loose, then settled into its orbit.
The idea came because Mercury and Venus have almost the same equatorial tilt to the sun.


Janus.

I have some suggestions. First off, Planet V's moons' names are spelt wrong. Utopic Unicron is UtopicUnicorn, and The Minmus Derp is dɹǝᗡ snɯuᴉꟽ ǝɥꓕ. I also made a better Theia texture and made a Planet V texture (tho the Planet V texture is just Project TNO's Sedna but recoloured xd). Can I send the textures so yuo can add them?

Actually, Utopic's name is correct.

[TheLostProbe]

But it's Unicorn, not Unicron (read closely)

[Anthony_B_Russo10]

I hate the spelling at times.





It will be fixed in a later update.

Wait, Planet V's moons are named after people on this forum?

[Anthony_B_Russo10]

One yes, the other no.
