Seriously though, a planet so hot that vapourised metal is in the air ? One day we'll be able to visit near these places, and that will be good.

Given the filth in the air, I suppose even Londoners would need to wear a helmet of some kind.

Not an astronomer, but from what I read in another article the main star behaves more or less like our sun would whereas the other stars orbit each other much further out in space. I am welcome to any correction. When I read about astronomy I always try to reconstruct things like this three dimensionally in my head and this was what I thought I was going on.

Interesting article, thanks for sharing. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system but after we learned more about Venus, a manned mission there became uninteresting since man can not survive there. I'm working on my critical essay about ultra hot planets right now. I'm gonna use a little help of writing service here https://essaypro.com/ to finish it at the hishest level without any grammar errors. It's very interesting topic for investigation.

Some people say it would be ideal for a colony because a bubble of regular nitrogen-oxygen Earth air would float at an altitude that has pretty much the exact temperature and pressure as Earth's atmosphere. Basically Stratos from Star Trek TOS "The Cloud Minders".
