Question	—	What conditions would support mercury as bodily fluid? I got to thinking a simple throwaway thought on this video where this dude flushes mercury in a toilet (in a closed loop) For one thing, it's easy to think about the properties of mercury (mostly its density) but actually seeing it is really mind blowing. But the imagery of a silver fluid flowing in... (more)	—	about 8 years ago
Question	—	Is atmospheric composition based on water content? More specifically, I've had some debates with a friend on how a planet with low oxygen would work.
