Reply to comment by DragonSlayersz in [WP] As the aliens blasted this strange blue planet with there hottest heat-ray, they were horrified to find the creatures below bundling up and speaking of “a chilly spring” by Ungus_Bungus_Lungus

Yes, I know that it does not.

Hold on let me explain better, there “heat” ray is colder than the natural temp of earth thus cooling the parts they hit down.

Oh my God, so what I said was right. It’s impossible to cool down a planet with a heat ray since they heat matter through radiation. To make something colder, the heat ray would need to fire a beam of “hot” particles colder than the planet’s surface temperature, this cooling it down via conduction. But then, it wouldn’t be a heat ray if it emitted matter instead of heat, so my point still stands. Obviously, this prompt doesn’t have to go by the laws of physics, and I’m just making a big fuss over nothing, it’s a good prompt is what I’m trying to say.
