   Ack! No night sounds horrible, imagine adjusting to that sleep cycle, though I suppose spending a long time in space could have you pre-adjusted.

   Oh, and I believe panel 2 should read ‘accept’

   That continent looks a bit like Antarctica! Kind of ironic that it’s a hot desert and our Antarctica is a cold desert.

   To be followed by firefighting, waterfighting, and dirtfighting.

   No need to imagine. Northern Sweden has no night and all of Sweden has barely any night during summer. I sure prefer summer permaday to the winter permanight.

   Sleep masks are for beginners. When I was a kid and we went traveling I thought people with sleep masks on the plane were weird. As I got older I realized they simply weren’t Swedish.

   You know, adjusting your sleep patterns would be among the least of your problems on a tide-locked planet…

    Reminds me of Pangaea. It had a desert at its center too. No need for a sun over head 24/7 to achieve it. So a planet locked into its star. Interesting. And two different alien species arrive and must live on it together. And there had been intelligences there before. I can guess why they died out. They can too.

    You know, I’m kinda wondering how long it’ll take them to figure out what’s under that odd hill just outside of town. If it was me there I’d be all over the place within moments after seeing it…formations like that don’t occur naturally except under very specific conditions which don’t apply here.

    Oh, this made think about “Nightfall” from Asimov: no night, ancient and abandoned cities…

    Well the difference here is that this planet do has a “dark half” I’m wondering if some anaarden or earthling dare to explore it some day…

    On re-reading Yontengu’s beginnings, isn’t Gorro complaining just a few strips earlier that “the sun sets for the last time on this beautiful planet”?
