And the daytime temperatures on this “Earth-like twin” are only 1,530 degrees Kelvin. The inhabitants must have been really attached to their SUVs.

Planet X, lurking and lounging in limpid pools of lassitude!

So, that orb has also solved the insoluble abiogenesis problem? Quite a pointless find, IMO.

Only 73? I wonder if we could get there in one afternoon? 😆

Orbital period is 4 days.

1 day Summer
1 day Fall
1 day Winter
1 day Spring

Repeat. Barely enough time to mow the grass, rake the leaves, sharpen the ski edges or plant some bulbs.

73 light years is practically next door. They could hop on a Light Jet and be here in like 75 years ( 1 year to accelerate and 1 year to slow down). Maybe that’s where these UFOs are coming from.

Hope they’ve developed a dinosaur spectrometer...
300 million years of age?
Maybe the first extinction has occurred and the biguns are soon to arrive...
