Q&A

(How) can I provide reliable water sources in a world of flying islands?

+0
−0

I have humans who live in a world filled with floating islands. These islands span all heights in the planet: from the core to the upper atmosphere. The problem I have is that most of these islands are too small to have an internal water cycle. Is there a way to provide the people with a reliable source of water? if so, how would I go about doing it?

Conditions

  • The mechanism that makes the islands float is irrelevant/not to be considered.
  • The planet is a puffy gas giant, for all intents and purposes there is no surface.
  • The people I have to provide live in an earth-like environment (1atm, 1g, earth-like atm. composition, sun-like star, etc). Of course, these conditions change as expected as people travel up and down through the atmosphere.
