Wasn’t that a plot in the last series of Doctor Who?
Star != Planet
In Japanese, the common word for star, “hoshi” also refers to planets. So, clearly, this comic was translated from Japanese.
That seems like a poor choice on their part
Exactly, they might be from the “booty” system now, but there’s no need to rename the planet. That would just be confusing.
Right? Shouldn’t it be something like JESSICA’S THICC BOOTY 4?
Jessica’s Thick Booty Prime
A misunderstanding on the Aliens part, their planet being second from their star is actually Jessica’s swampy taint.
JESSICA’S THICK BOOTY b or JESSICA’S THICK BOOTY c probably.
I could see an advanced civilization with lots of habitable planets having a naming convention of star name then planet number. So we’d be Sun-3. Or if we rename the sun to Earth, we’d be Earth-3, called “Earth” for short. In English, our planet name literally means dirt. 😞
That’s all (?) indoeuropean languages I think
Dirt is great. Have you seen the other planets in our system?
Also one of them is called Uranus. Dirt is great.
Ideally, you’d organize it like the animal kingdom or something. Very detailed and perhaps giving at least a hint to its location. Then you’d have a colloquial name for it.
“An advanced civilization”?
Sure, try typing “Sol-3” and “Sol-3a” into wikipedia.
I love the cataloging aspect. Maybe official names like those, plus imaginative names from whoever lives on it, or whoever discovered it.
Ahah, go tell that to all the chinese cultivation manga folks.
