    I'm going to do this right now with my new Blog Engine. Would we then also need to create a table for the Galaxies and Universes they're from, too? Since chances are, not every planet will have a unique name.

    Maybe people would deal with difference in time count between planets like they deal with time zones. Wonder how that would play out.

    @flyingbangtan Well it would be interesting. Because the planets rotate and orbit the sun at different speeds, a day on another planet wont be the same as a day on Earth, and on Venus a day is longer than a year, because it orbits the sun faster than it rotates on its axis.
