Scientifically, this world is rather bizarre. Not the idea of a planet composed entirely of water, mind. That could occur naturally, and certainly could occur by a species with the technology to take all their water into space. But the water would accrete naturally into a spherical shape due to gravity and it would hold that shape indefinitely, even if it evaporated. Basically, the whole idea of the planet needing a containment field shows ignorance of one of the most basic scientific laws, that of gravity.

Why is this article called 'monean waterworld" and not it's canonical name (according to the article) the Waters? Capricorn 10:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I concur, it should probably be named "The Waters". --From Andoria with Love 02:50, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
