Talk:Habitability of binary star systems

Tidally locked moons
"Moons orbiting gas giants or brown dwarfs are likely to be tidally locked to their primary[...]" I'm not sure why "gas giants or brown dwarfs" are specifically mentioned here. As far as I can tell, all moons are likely to be tidally locked, and their chances of being so are unrelated to the nature of the host body.

Stated as it is, this implies that the moons are likely to be tidally locked only because they orbit a gas giant or brown dwarf. I think that's not correct. Klugerama (talk) 04:03, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

What was first: cosmic egg or the space chicken?
One should also consider if a planet may actively regulate its naturally unstable orbit around a binary star system, i.e. by becoming a planet-encompassing sentient organism that can manipulate space-time's curvature, e.g. as described in Solaris, Stanislaw Lem's famous SF novel. In other words, a binary star-orbiting planet may be habitable exactly because the life inhabiting it purposefully made its orbit habitable. 92.249.156.242 (talk) 19:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

C, SP/SP, and W-type planets.
Hey people of Wikipedia. I am not an astronomer or astro biologist but, I think these new planet types should be included in the article. What do you people think about that? How can it be improved? And could someone call NASA to tell them about this?

I know I don't know much, so please Educate me on the topic and fix my mistakes. But, take what I wrote into consideration and Improve and maintain it. I also know I am not good at writing paragraphs, so please bear with me and be compassionate, caring, and patient. Ps Dapykingthekind (talk) 01:08, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
