Nov 6, 2017 at 9:59 comment added Slarty Interesting that mercury only has one plate. I read somewhere that the oceans are important in plate tectonics, as my world would be a desert world with much less water (90-99% less) perhaps this might work to stop plate formation. The idea is that the cracks would greatly hinder travel, but still allow it. The idea that the water would fill up any cracks would be a bonus, although it sounds like I might have to settle for mountains instead of canyons if I want to keep things vaguely science based.
