Voyage to Phtanum B | Alien Biology (1x30)

Air date: Oct 01, 2021

What would alien life look like on a planet far larger than Earth? A voyage to Phtanum B, an alien world envisioned by creator SteveMobCannon. Imagine an earth-like planet far larger than our own. NASA has actually discovered numerous exoplanets, dubbed ‘super-earths,’ which are over twice the size of our tiny home-world. Most of these super-earths can’t support life, but it’s interesting to imagine what sorts of organisms we’d discover on a super-sized version of a habitable world... Phtanum B is a speculative biology project created by the brilliant Stevemobcannon, who imagines just such a planet, and the incredible alien life that might evolve on it.
