Water Worlds

Ocean planets in the habitable zone.

A water world forms when abundant oxygen and hydrogen sit in the temperate zone around a star, letting liquid water dominate the surface. These planets are among the strongest candidates for life. Build one by loading up on oxygen and hydrogen at about one AU from a Sun-like star.

New: Stand on Your Moons 🌒

A planet's surface view isn't the only ground any more. Press the surface button on a planet with moons and it asks where to stand: the planet itself, or any moon still in orbit, each tagged with what it became — ocean, ice, carbon, volcanic. Every moon gets its own ground and sky from its own physics: airless rock under a black sky, ice cracked by geysers over a hidden sea, sulfur plains shaking with eruptions, or orange haze you can't see the sun through. And hanging over the horizon, there's the planet you built.
