Re: [GURPS Space(/Fantasy??)] Consequences of a Unique Planetary Rotation
I recall seeing a science program about scientific speculation concerning alien life (can't remember the name, though). One of the worlds described was a tide-locked world with a substantial ocean. On the spot on the planet closest to the sun there was the eye of an eternal hurricane that provided atmospheric circulation and a degree of heat transfer. I can't recall the details, but most of the life was around the edges of the hurricane.
