  • I wonder if a single-biome planet with life would actually be more likely to produce predators that could threaten a human visitor. Like, would Wampas actually be more likely to evolve on a fully frozen planet like Hoth than a planet with some temperate climates that creep into their niche occasionally over the eons? Sci fi loves when dangerous native fauna threatens an advanced human visitor.


  • I think I played that same game back in the day. And yeah, when you have the context added by building out from the distinctly shaped border states, it’s fairly easy to get almost all of them, but I don’t expect the average American to be sure if they’re looking at Indiana or Illinois based on nothing but the shape of its outline.
