Welp, guess it’s back to ST:TNG and Teen Titans: Go! for a while…

I Only Wanted to See You Under the Iron Rain…

Wasp-76b, as it’s known, orbits so close in to its host star, its dayside temperatures exceed 2,400C – hot enough to vaporise metals.
Hmm….this reminds me of…let me think for a minute…wait, I got it…
Yeah, that’s the one. I think.
(Seriously, check it out. Not even the Jedi could possibly handle an actual “inferno” planet.)
Max von Sydow, Legend
March 9, 2020
