We think of planets as the inherently confined children of host stars.

    Imagine an alien civilization for which the idea of orbiting a star is impossible to fathom… So cool!

      Imagine an alien civilisation that is capable of moving planets through deep space as a mode of transport.

    Why are they always Rogue planets? Never any Cleric or Barbarian planets.

      If they weren’t rogues you’d have already discovered them by now. Barbarians aren’t quiet and clerics are always talking.

        What about Rangers? They’re usually about as quiet as Rogues, but they often bring a companion with them, so they should be a bit easier to spot.

      I don’t know, but I’m a big fan of cowboy and mafia planets.

        Oh, I’m sorry…I thought I wasn’t really a planet!? But when you’re horny, everything suddenly changes.

    as would the gravitational interactions that would yeet them out into the big, wide galaxy.

    Please stop using slang words in professional writings. It’s embarrassing.

      It’s communication to the public, not an official paper. When talking to the public, you meet them on their level. You knew what it meant, so mission accomplished.

      It’s in the vernacular now. You only notice it because you’re older than the term. For a Zoomer or younger Millennial, it won’t stand out so much.

        I’m an older millennial who generally dislikes new words like that but this is the one that I fully accept. It’s just a good word, you don’t need any prior knowledge the understand it either, it just works.
