I wonder what it would be like to grow up on a planet that never had a star, or which formed around a dying star?
Okay, so this comment makes me wonder. Do you think intelligent life (meaning at least as intelligent as say my cat, who I really think is far more intelligent than me, or life at least able to cognitively comprehend and wonder at the world around it) can develop on such planets? I have don't any problem with differences, but it seems to me that having a star is such a critical factor for energy and other good stuff that supports life.
