Yes. What's the point you're trying to make? (genuine question)

  To express skepticism about >The largest planet in our solar system is truly unique.

    Since we're in the business of nitpicking – unique means one of a kind, so the "truly" is redundant. That said, there are so many planets in the Universe that it's practically impossible for any single one to be unique – the term is being used here not in a technically accurate way, but in a loose, "I want you to be impressed" sense.

      Well, if you think about it, there aren't two planets which are 100% alike, so each planet can be called unique.
      • visakanv 10y ago
        That's true, but in which case the term ceases to be useful!

    It's unique within our solar system, the only one we have details about. I think it's fair to state that as being unique. The implication (that we don't know about other solar systems) doesn't need to be stated, at least to me.
