The buoyant force works not only from the liquids, but also from the gases. So how possible is to build bases on the level of gases with density equal density of the base? The density of atmosphere at the sea level on the Earth and on the Kerbin ~ 1.25 kg/m3 . So if we need to reach the density level like water, we need to reach the depth when pressure is equal 800 atm. What do you think about this? I think that it's impossible, because pressure must be 80000000 kPa, but the pressure limit for all details is only 4000 kPa. And also it would be impossible to take off from this depth because pressure is unbelievable and I think that the atmosphere altitude would be about 1-3M KM. P.S. That was written by Russian student that study in 8 class. Maybe I don't know some physics laws.

Eve is a largest object with surface to stand in the Kerbol system. But what was it like thousands of years ago? I have 2 theories for this topic! 1.Eve was a gas giant years ago. Evidence of that is high density liquid on the surface. And deep in the atmospheres of gas giants there is a pool of liquids with different chemicals. The composition of them depends on atmosphere. But how did Eve turned into such object? Maybe exposure to sun ripped of most of the atmosphere. And result is what we have now. A planet with liquid on surface and atmosphere with crazy pressure. So now it easy to say that Eve is a ktonian planet (honestly i have no idea how to pronounce it) 2.On surface of Eve there is a lot of craters. Maybe a long time ago Eve had even more atmospheric pressure. But when asteroids, comets and meteors stroke the inner solar system. Atmosphere was lost due to collisions. Eve has a large SOI and powerful gravity for pulling different objects into collision course. It is also more plausible than the Gas giant theory due to unique landscape that are impossible on gas giants. About gas giants and their liquid pools-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter read article ''internal structure'' it is quite informative! Thanks for reading and I’m still looking for critique (constructive of course) if you know more.

I have a (Weird) question, are Double Gas giants possible? If so, how likely are they? And could they have any sort of Moons?
