@nyrath @FredKiesche Some Atomic Rockets flavored Whirligigity from one of the members of my discord server.
@FredKiesche @nyrath But these illustrations are not necessarily canon anyway. Anyway, consider that if Mesklin was yellow, it'd be even more of a fried egg.
Of course my own "headcanon" is that the moon Toorey is an earth-mass Titan, anyway.
@FredKiesche @nyrath I've seen those. I have a copy of the omnibus that contains Whirligig World, and I made a pdf version for my own reference. The painting is grayscale so it isn't as revealing as I'd like. Here's some color illustrations. The Astounding version had some B&W illustrations too.
