NOW HERE'S SOMETHING THAT IS VERY INTERESTING

Just ran across this. Maybe a new one for WAP.

That is interesting. Too bad it isn't temperate enough for life. Now, does this bolster the argument that there is no other life in the whole universe? Since it's not in The Bible, I imagine graphs for LAFs will say it does.

What "they" won't tell you is this lava planet has been explored and there is life Jim, but not life as we know it.

What is that thing? It looks like a collection of elephant dung.

Isn't that from the Star Trek episode where Kirk and President Lincoln fought against Ghengis Khan?

Bingo!

It was supposed to be a "lava" based creature. But considering the limits of TV special effects in the 1960's, especially on a low rated low budget show that was about to be cancelled... well, it looks like a heaping pile of smoldering dung.
