Alien Questions Abound In Dryly Funny Sci-Fi K-Comedy 'Glitch'
The main character in the 10-episode sci-fi k-comedy Glitch is Hong Ji-hyo, a woman who likes to reaffirm the fact that she is rational and sensible. Ji-hyo, played by Jeon Yeo-bin, needs to keep repeating that to herself because she can't trust what she sees.

Any intelligent civilization on a habitable Earth-like planet around a sun-like star, will face this existential risk. Whereas technologically savvy civilizations will abort their overheated planets, less advanced ones will show signs of distress like animals in a burning forest.
U ranus is one of the least explored planets in the solar system, with just a single barnstorming visit by Voyager 2 in 1986. If ever there was a world that deserves more attention than that, however, Uranus is it, if only because it is such a cosmic odd-ball.
A lingering problem with the giant impact explanation for Uranus’ angle is that the entire early solar system was a shooting gallery of whizzing planets and moons which should have knocked other planets similarly cockeyed. And yet, Uranus alone orbits sideways.
A Catalog Of Habitable Zone Exoplanets - Astrobiology
The search for habitable planets has revealed many planets that can vary greatly from an Earth analog environment.
These include highly eccentric orbits, giant planets, different bulk densities, relatively active stars, and evolved stars. This work catalogs all planets found to reside in the HZ and provides HZ boundaries, orbit characterization, and the potential for spectroscopic follow-up observations.
