If you fill it with hydrogen peroxide, then they’ll hate it. Otherwise no.

Could be, but there’s other words with that same ending

I think there’s a distinction between “electrocuted” and “electrocuted to death”. Same as with “stabbed” vs. “stabbed to death” or any other such verb that can, but may not necessarily result in death.

Google and the Oxford dictionary disagree.

Electrocuted as in they received injuries from an electric shock.

You should know that this wasn’t a solar flare, but a coronal mass ejection. Look that up instead. No, it’s nothing too bad either. The one in 1859 was a big one and some people got electrocuted at telegraph stations, but this ain’t like that.

Not a solar flare but a coronal mass ejection. And while the subsequent G5 geomagnetic storm can do damage to various technological systems, it shouldn’t be anything too bad.

If life could do the things you think it might, our own galaxy would already look a lot different compared to what we’re seeing.

And there never will be. Then again, we won’t stay around long enough to have to worry about it.

Yes? Never claimed otherwise.

My point was that there are thankfully exceptions to this prevalent trope.

Good thing The Expanse is a series instead of a movie.

Imagine not knowing your bearings at all times…

Also imagine not looking like a sailor…

Fair, I messed up the names there. Moonette is the synonym of that that I was thinking of.

But a satellite (natural or artificial) is any object that orbits around a celestial body. The Earth is a satellite just as the Moon is one. Subsatellite is just the satellite of a satellite, but that depends on context. Moons fit that definition, but aren’t usually considered subsatellites because we don’t usually think of planets as the satellites of the Sun that they are.

A moonlet moonette is a natural satellite of a moon without being a moon itself. A planet is also a natural satellite of a star. The use of the word “moon” as a common term for natural satellites of planets is well established in professional terminology.

True, but it’s also the name of the Roman godess, which does make it allign better with all the other astronomical names.
