Welcome to Tar World.

This is a terrestrial sized planet that is somewhat larger in diameter than Earth. It is however not as dense or as massive.

This planet orbits a pair of main sequence red dwarf stars. These are old very long-lized stars. This binary system was a product of an early phase of star formation in the Milky Way galaxy. As a result, this system is relatively poor in heavier elements. Indeed, this planet lacks an iron core entirely. It may have a small sulfurous core. The rest of the planet's mass is made of hydorcarbon compounds.

This world has no solid surface. It is a constantly convexing mass of tarry goo thousands kilometers deep. The atmosphere is a primordial blend of sulfuric acid and methane.There is a chance of extremophile microbial life, but it is not a pleasant place to dwell.
