The only planet completely populated by robots.
- duxup 6y agoThat we know of.
- FnControlOption 6y agoThis makes me imagine some secret alien civilization living in the depths of Venus, using its atmosphere as cover
- godelski 6y agoVenus is completely populated by dead robots
- dylan604 6y agoIs it though? Are the robots even recognizable as robots, or have they totally melted into slag?
- majkinetor 6y agoExactly. The other machine adventures are not even on planets :)
- godelski 6y agoIs a robot that becomes a melted slag of metal not a dead robot?
- munk-a 6y agoIt certainly isn't a live robot!
- Robotbeat 6y agoThey’re mostly steel which does not melt at those temperatures (and the acidic parts of the atmosphere are much higher altitude), 400-500C. So yeah. Recognizable.
- majkinetor 6y agoTalking like a true survivor of Venus atmosphere adventure... PoC or GTFO.
- munk-a 6y agoDead things remain dead things even when they are unrecognizable - if I state that oil is partially composed of dead dinosaurs most folks won't find that statement disagreeable. I think it's pretty fair to describe the remains as dead robots similar to folks talking about their coke-bottle decks (recycled plastic) or even a sword forged from the remains of dead robots - I'd still consider that to be made of dead robots even though very little remains outside of the mineral composition.
- numpad0 6y agoVenus atmosphere is hot and corrosive
- yellowapple 6y ago> if I state that oil is partially composed of dead dinosaurs most folks won't find that statement disagreeable. I mean, aside from most oil being composed of dead plants rather than dinosaurs (if I remember right). Unless you're counting the bits of dinosaur absorbed by those plants before they turned into oil, but I feel like at some point they stopped being dinosaur and started being plant.
- proc0 6y agoWe are star stuff, I guess fits here.
- cacarr 6y agoIIRC, surface temps on Venus are hot enough to melt lead, but not hot enough to melt whatever sort of alloys were likely used. It does have ongoing volcanism, though.
