ferrospiders

There is a point in the development of most planets where most of their surface, and a lot of the space beneath, is urbanized. Some material — usually a metal — is more common than grass, and the trouble with a working photosynthesis and cellular respiration relationship is cleverly worked around to cram in more […]
