From: "Wes Connell" &lt;wconnell#adhesive,com&gt;":
&gt; Does anyone have any good links to some planet/solar system generation
&gt; resources? I'm looking for some algorithms or cgis that will correctly
&gt; generate a planet. The depth of detail I am looking for is like size of
the
&gt; planet, distance from its star, size / temp of its star. At the same time
&gt; making sure the planet would be habitable and such. The physics behind
such
&gt; a task are currently beyond my ability.
&gt;
&gt; Also planet/terrain generation that is geophysically correct would be
great.
&gt; Even to go as far as plate movement, mineral make up, and weather
patterns.
&gt;
&gt; Anyone know of such resources?

Most of my favorite resources in this area are listed at:
