ED Horizons - planet surfaces

[dtrulez]

So like most I am super excited about this announcement. While the more interesting Earth-like planets are coming next year, now when we get the rocky airless ones I ам wondering what types of land surfaces we will be able to explore.

Considering our Solar system, the planets that apply to this definition are Mercury, asteroid belt bodies, most of the natural satellites of all the planets across the Sol system, probably Pluto (despite that according to New Horizons, Pluto has some atmosphere). Mars (our era Mars) is a barren world, but stil has some atmosphere and probably Mars-like planets will be for 2016 expansion.

So, which planets you think will be considered for the first Horizons expansion? Will all we see be like the Moon and Mercury, or we will see surfaces like Europa's or Titan, icy planets, volcanic planets?

I think it will be up to and including all but water worlds, earth likes and gas giants. Not sure about ammonia worlds. Looking forward to the speedboat for water worlds.

I assume airless planets would mean any planet without an atmosphere. We have all kinds of those in the game. Icy ones, rocky ones, metal rich ones, ones with free flowing lava. I have seen brown planets, yellow planets, white, red and black planets, all without atmosphere. There are a bunch.
