Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A swamp planet, also referred to as a swamp world, is a speculative planetary concept characterized by its predominant or complete coverage of bogs and swamps. While no confirmed instances of such planets have been observed as of current knowledge, the notion of swamp planets is rooted in astrobiological and geological considerations. These hypothetical worlds are imagined to possess extensive areas of standing water, shallow marshes, and waterlogged terrain, which could potentially lead to unique environmental conditions and the evolution of distinct ecosystems.

These hypothetical worlds have become a common setting in various science fiction franchises, offering a distinctive backdrop for storytelling and exploration of alien ecosystems, often portraying them as intriguing and mysterious realms teeming with life adapted to the wetland environment.
