It should be noted though that objects need to have a minimum mass of around 1021 kg to be able to hold an atmosphere, so that excludes a lot of the smaller objects. An atmosphere is important because it gives potential settlers a constant source of gases (e.g. CO2), stabilizes the temperature between night and day, and protects them somewhat from radiation.
I was looking for “earth” for way too long before realising
Oh shit, I just got it too. Thanks for that
Where’s Jupiter? And Mars is smaller than Earth?
I don’t think I understand this map.
jupiter doesn’t have a clearly-defined surface. it’s a gradient transition between atmosphere and liquid ocean of hydrogen, called supercritical phase transition. that’s why you can’t land there.
