I decided to explore the exoplanets spectulated to be lava worlds. While the nearest candidate,Alpha Centuari Bb is actually a scorched desert (even with days that probably would burn someone's eye sockets out) Kepler-79 b is indeed a lava planet.

After all, how can the world not be melting when it is this close to its mother star?



Here's what kepler-78 b looks like from space:



And as a challenge, can you tell in this picture where the sun ends and the land begins?
