evilcat how could you say that. halcyon is a very nice place to live, beautiful, with peaceful forests and oceans with halcyon shores.

How would you know? You've never been there!

Very simple. The planet looks much different from Earth.

Judging by the name, it should be.

Thanks again, Kojikun. I got it as my desktop at work. if my boss gives me shit about it, I'll ask her if she'd like to visit a planet with the atmosphere/temperature extremes of venus with the barrenness of Mars that gives out candy.

By the way, can someone give me the pronunciation of that planet?
HAL-see-on?

hal-SEE-on?

My dictionary pronounced it thusly:

Hal-see-uhn. It means "happy." Great place to visit!

you can say it either way for the planet. i named it after two things, not the actual word halcyon: a really good, cute friend of mine from school goes by the moniker halcyon, and its also a planet in GRA.
