And if towards its core that planet had two superionic layers of differing conductivity, as Gleason and colleagues suggest Neptune might contain, then the magnetic field generated by the outer liquid layer would interact with each of them differently, making things stranger still.

this is badass.. there might be multiple layers made of different phases of this superionic H2O "metal", which generates convection currents of this stuff.. Neptune and Uranus are weird inside..

Check out this planet shamer right here.

You’re weird inside, all gooey, goopy, and icky looking.

i draw the line at keeping multiple phases of metallic water inside you, brother.. that definitely makes you alien, and i'm pointing my finger and going "WTF", i don't care if that makes me a planet fascist..
