A planet with almost no atmosphere, and the complex organisms here somehow can live in vacuum.

I have some ideas for really isolated environments - An environment like Lake Vostok, But with hydrothermal vents and complex life - A sealed cave where life has become multicellular independently from all other earth life - an extremely small island (under 20 feet in size)

Inspired by a comment on the general talking-thread, I've been looking through locations that were thought to exist, but actually never did. And these things are ripe for speccing!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Island,_New_Caledonia - the most recent one on the lists, only found to not be real in 2012! Perhaps in honor of its true nature going undetected for so long, it could be home to some late-surviving creatures like mekosuchines or cousins to the tuatara.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emerald_Island_(phantom) - Could be a nice little project, along with its 'siblings' the Dougherty Island and the Royal Company's Islands.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Brendan%27s_Island - An island off the coast of Africa that is apparently heavily wooded and very sunny, one of many alleged paradises. Perhaps the fruit on the island could actually be inedible to humans as a twist of irony.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountains_of_Kong - The potential effects of these mountains on Africa's climate honestly intrigues me even more than the animals that might live there.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meropis - It's no Atlantis, but an Atlantic island with potentially descendants of Mediterranean fauna blown out to sea? Sounds good to me!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anson_Archipelago - Another neat little set of fictional Pacific Islands that could have some unique organisms living there.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Parime - Linked to El Dorado itself, perhaps a civilization could settle along these shores.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buenaventura_River_(legend) - As with the Mountains of Kong, the implications that this would have on the continent honestly intrigues me more than the animals that might live there.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahara_Sea - Could be used in both an alternative evolution project where this sea was natural and had been there all along, or in a future evolution project where it came to fruition.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candyn - A new Southeast Asian island, potentially home to some unique forms of the typical fauna found in the region.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Legouve_Reef - I could see this project as being similar in scope to Haemos Island - a barren little rock where life stubbornly refuses to die out.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_of_California - Could be home to a bizarre mix of Pleistocene fauna and relicts from whenever the project author decides to have the place split off.
More examples are listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Phantom_islands
Another two concepts that could be explored are Terra Australis and Shangri-La - neither of these have ever been covered on this forum, as far as I know.

Quotes
Spoiler: click to toggle OctoSharkTaSaurus: WELP. HELL-O-PHANTS IT IS. Kamineigh: I was six and I had started having fantasies about this old crone dying. Sometimes by my own hand. YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG IF A SIX-YEAR OLD WANTS TO KILL YOU WITH THE SAME HANDS HE JUST USED TO MAKE A BLOCK TOWER. Parasky: No, he's right, they have a medical grade walrus at most hospitals for that sort of thing. Mr Mysterio, regarding yours truly: I'm learning things about you that I'm not sure I wanted to know. HangingThief: An otologist is only as good as his walrus Stealth_Rock: We have a discord for double penetration? Ichthyander: If your eyelids are massive enough to significantly affect the path of light in space, it is time to go sleep. Mr Mysterio: Glarn-Glarn, don't... don't fuck the cave baboons. Kamineigh: They lacked wings. Instead, they went around in modified pilot's gear and beat the shit out of people using maces. Parasky: No! We will not calm down! This is a serious argument over whether or not some long dead animal is in any way similar to a group of modern animals that they are descended from! THIS. IS. SEWIOUS. Lamna: Obvious typo, I'm never going to be popular in Belgium. Trex841: Interesting point. Valid counterpoint. Self-obsessed psychotic rant. Parasky: No ties. Begin genetically modifying crows until we have organisms that roughly resemble those in the competition, and then have them fight to the death to see who wins this competition. Alternatively, Cephalian and SabrWolf could fight to the death. But at the end of the day something will be fighting to the death for my amusement to determine the winner. Yellowdrakex: Is it alright to have an irrational fear of gliding snakes? They're snakes. FROM ABOVE. Kamineigh: See, you wouldn't be in this mess if you began a bloody revolution every time your leaders showed to unsatisfactory. Zihuatanejo: Somewhere in heaven, a very groggy, very confused angel has just woken up and is trying to figure out why a boisterous Australian man is poking it with a stick. Komodo: I'm sorry but in what alternative universe would thousands of zebras be sent back in time by some sort of illegal time travel group to change history and preparing them by making gigantic working animatronic allosaurs? Seriously, why? Parasky: Maybe y'all should move to America, where you can flex your freedom muscles. Sir Spookums: It's a game about children catching super powered monsters, stuffing them in tiny balls, and battling other strangers' monsters. What about that makes sense in regards to anything, mister Kam? Des Orages: Yi qi. Just when you think you've seen it all, nature screws us over once more. Kaminiegh: This is clearly an inaccurate statement. I'd never challenge the authority of an admin... Unless Paraksytron stubbed his toe and fell over. THEN I, STARSCREIGHM, WILL BECOME THE NEW LEADER OF OF THE DE-SPECU-CONS! Dragon: Is normal a good word to use for describing any of us? Velociraptor: I once dreamed I was trying to steal a flamingo. The flamingo was oddly calm about the whole situation. Kaminiegh: THAT'S IT, I'M KINKSHAMING. Flashman63: In its 4,600 year history, men from all eras, places and classes have been entering into the Library: from the ancient bearded sages of Sumeria and Chaldea, to the sober-minded Academics and Zoologists of the Victorian era, to the great warlord Cletus, an inbred hillbilly who just happened to be carrying his AR-15 around his County's Strip-Mall library. OctoSharktasaurus: Well, uh, it's a pseudo-tripedal, terrestrial subcontinental Madagascan Beaked Whale... Is that not obvious? It literally says it blatantly. Holben: Did you not add lamb's blood to your fruit juice and the crushed bones of an englishman to your salsa? It's not authentic if you don't. Kaminiegh: Shut up, Hybrid, stop ruining my chances of time-travelling and getting some Neanderthal tail! Mr Mysterio: Except maybe Canada. If ever there was a country that was hiding secret reserves of powerful alien technology, it's probably mine. HangingThief: If you answered mainly "yes," you are most likely a salamander. Unfortunately it is becoming harder and harder to tell these days. Monster: In vaguely related news, I've developed a fear of my sewing machine. WHAT ARE YOU STRANGE NEEDLEBEAST Mynxi: He sowed the seed, I merely pissed on it and saw what grew. Beetleboy: The moral of the story: never trust a catfish. Parasky: Speaking of original, note to self: write erotic classical Chinese literature fan fiction Bromance of the Three Kingdoms under pseudonym Tuck Chingle. Little: Starting playing DND, took all of an hour of gameplay until a yuri love-triangle was initiated. And no, it was not my fault. Corecin: If this is your first time with a lesbian love triangle in a DnD game than you don't even have to specify that you're starting out. Octo: Oh no now Little will enlighten with the deep and complex subject that is hentai lore. Beetleboy: It shows what kind of person I am that I'm seeking crush advice on a forum about creating fictional organisms. Corecin: I am not in the mood for looking up yuri because then the FBI agent monitoring my computer will judge me with reckless abandon. Blue_Komrade: Excuse me sir I am going to have to see if you have your membership card to the Misanthrope Club. Parasky: Ultimately, by the miracle of microbiology and biochemistry, I have accidentally added an additional month to my brew and created a Bavarian style hefeweizen rather than the American style wheat beer I planned, despite technically not having the correct ingredients. However because I wrote down what I did wrong its not a mistake it's actually science. Rebirth: I can't be the only one curious about what would happen if you spayed and neutered a male antechinus before it reached sexual maturity. Ebervalius: Laws? What kind of spooky cuckery is that? Parasky: Ah see, but that's just the thing, you thought that I thought that you thought that I had said you hadn't read it, when really I had said that you had said that you thought that I thought that you hadn't read it. So really it's Flisch's fault.

I've actually been working on a project centering around the island of California concept. It's been developing slowly due to my other two projects, but I really like the idea of a massive island just off the west coast of the US.

Xipetotec | Mbio Bila Mshindi | Diarios California Quotes"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt." "There seems to me too much misery in the world. I cannot persuade myself that a beneficent and omnipotent God would have designedly created the Ichneumonidae with the express intention of their feeding within the living bodies of caterpillars..." "If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere." "My opinions are formed from a perfect blend of science and morality and as such I am an unassailable bastion of absolute truth. All opinions are subjective but mine are objectively the least subjective."

I once had an idea, when I was younger, about a world that is only floating islands, continents, and seas. My thought was that life would have been more prone towards flying, and that the skies would have many strange groups all competing against one another. A world of floating islands was way to hard for me to wrap my head around, because I had no idea how day/night and weather would even work.

Spoiler: click to toggle This is a true story. A girl died in 1933. A man buried her in the ground when she was still alive. The murderer chanted,"Toma sota balcu" as he buried her.

Someone should make a meme out of this Dougal Dixon thing. Copy paste his face onto someone in front of a crystal ball, holding a copy of After Man in his hand. –Little
Asking questions isn't always a bad thing. It creates discussion about it, and can sometimes cause Kam to consider things he hadn't thought about before. –Dragon
Good news, got to go out with my friends to the movies today.
Bad news, we saw Ice Age 5. –trex841
Now I'm envious. Six digits needs to become the default trait in humans. I'm gonna settle down with a nice five-fingered lady and have kids so I can teach them to use their incredible power for evil. –Fakey

Lawn work just sucks which is why, I have thistles instead. - colddigger yet more
Spoiler: click to toggle "That sort of thing is the reason why I have trouble trusting adults." Somehow Harry kept his voice steady. "Because they get angry if you even try to reason with them. To them it's defiance and insolence and a challenge to their higher tribal status. If you try to talk to them they get angry. So if I had anything really important to do, I wouldn't be able to trust you. Even if you listened with deep concern to whatever I said - because that's also part of the role of someone playing a concerned adult - you'd never change your actions, you wouldn't actually behave differently, because of anything I said." -Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality
There are unresolved issues in any science, and this does not prevent science from existing. The same physicists do not know everything about electricity, which does not prevent us all from using electrical devices. And in the structure of the atom, not everything is completely clear, but this does not make it necessary to cancel physics as a science. And mathematicians are arguing about the solution of certain theorems. Therefore, the presence in biology in general, and in the theory of evolution in particular, of some unresolved issues - this is not a reason to cancel and "close" the science or individual fields of knowledge. Science is a search, and unresolved issues will always be. -Pavel Volkov
Yes, yes, irreversible psychological damage might occur, but it is all for their own good, so it's okay. So what if a kid winds up a twitching vegetable afraid of venturing into the outside world? At least he won't get kidnapped by a lollipop-wielding child-molester or hit by a bus while jaywalking and smoking crack. -TV Tropes
Ford: If we're lucky, it's just the Vogons come to throw us in to space.
Arthur: And if we're unlucky?
Ford: If we're unlucky, the captain might read us some of his poetry first... -The Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy
Tthe vast majority of Creationists that I have met online or in real life, have been stubbornly, ignorantly arrogant towards people who accept evolution. I have met some creationists who are genuinely nice people who accept other's beliefs, but they are in the minority. Even the most prominent Creationist preachers or "creation scientists" can be labelled as arrogant, because their behavior when talking against or about evolution ranges from passive-aggressive to bordering on sociopathic.-Tim Morris

2 Project ideas that have been bouncing around in my head for ages:
A serina style terraformed world where monotremes are the main species, along with a few essential organisms.
A terraformed planet with the only species introduced being living fossils, and essential organisms.

Asking questions isn't always a bad thing. It creates discussion about it, and can sometimes cause Kam to consider things he hadn't thought about before. –Dragon
Good news, got to go out with my friends to the movies today.
Bad news, we saw Ice Age 5. –trex841
Now I'm envious. Six digits needs to become the default trait in humans. I'm gonna settle down with a nice five-fingered lady and have kids so I can teach them to use their incredible power for evil. –Fakey

I found it difficult to sleep this past night, so instead I cleaned the entire house and all the animal enclosures and baked a cake and woops now it's tomorrow. –Sheather
I haven't got anything against cake. I have, however, got quite a bit against semi-digested food making a migration back up from my stomach and out of my mouth while washing my tongue in digestive juices. -Beetleboy
Rapidly closing in on my self-imposed limit of 20 featherfluffs again now though, so these new additions (Jade and the birthday budgies) will be the last for a while. So he says until next time. –Sheether again

I am here. Cuz I'm bored.-Sheather
Though a better idea would be to rapidly electrolyze the oceans of the world and monopolize the world's water supply because you own the only major factory for burning hydrogen to form drinking and agricultural water. -colddigger
Well then, good luck with the cheese and the weird tenses. -Trex841
Lawn work just sucks which is why, I have thistles instead. - colddigger yet more
Spoiler: click to toggle "That sort of thing is the reason why I have trouble trusting adults." Somehow Harry kept his voice steady. "Because they get angry if you even try to reason with them. To them it's defiance and insolence and a challenge to their higher tribal status. If you try to talk to them they get angry. So if I had anything really important to do, I wouldn't be able to trust you. Even if you listened with deep concern to whatever I said - because that's also part of the role of someone playing a concerned adult - you'd never change your actions, you wouldn't actually behave differently, because of anything I said." -Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality
There are unresolved issues in any science, and this does not prevent science from existing. The same physicists do not know everything about electricity, which does not prevent us all from using electrical devices. And in the structure of the atom, not everything is completely clear, but this does not make it necessary to cancel physics as a science. And mathematicians are arguing about the solution of certain theorems. Therefore, the presence in biology in general, and in the theory of evolution in particular, of some unresolved issues - this is not a reason to cancel and "close" the science or individual fields of knowledge. Science is a search, and unresolved issues will always be. -Pavel Volkov
Yes, yes, irreversible psychological damage might occur, but it is all for their own good, so it's okay. So what if a kid winds up a twitching vegetable afraid of venturing into the outside world? At least he won't get kidnapped by a lollipop-wielding child-molester or hit by a bus while jaywalking and smoking crack. -TV Tropes
Ford: If we're lucky, it's just the Vogons come to throw us in to space.

Tthe vast majority of Creationists that I have met online or in real life, have been stubbornly, ignorantly arrogant towards people who accept evolution. I have met some creationists who are genuinely nice people who accept other's beliefs, but they are in the minority. Even the most prominent Creationist preachers or "creation scientists" can be labelled as arrogant, because their behavior when talking against or about evolution ranges from passive-aggressive to bordering on sociopathic.-Tim Morris

Why are Elephants and Rhinos so underused in spec?
Everyone thinks they'll die. A spec project where the most endangered/unique familiar amniotes are taken to a terraformed world to be preserved and begin to diversify (e.g. rhinos, elephants, orangutans, pangolins, tigers), (kakapos, kagu, giant ibis), (leatherback sea turtle, gharial, chinese crocodile lizard)
