Q&A

Can a planet mostly covered with water exist in a perpetual sunset?

+0
−0

I have read many posts about planets in perpetual sunset or twilight. Tidal locking, perpetual sunset at the poles of a planet with zero axis tilt, and so on. Great information by the way. This question is similar. Can a planet that is mostly covered in water be in a state of perpetual sunset? And can the sunset be significantly larger than our own sunsets and still be habitable by humans? My short story takes place on a water world in perpetual sunset.
