Envdevelopment, not to be mistaken with environmentally sustainable development (a rather dull human misconception), is the process by which the environments of particularly tedious planets are artificially enhanced to foster the growth of more interesting and preferably less humdrum biomes. Masterminded by the legendary cosmic landscape artist Floribundar the Aesthetically Fixated, the practice involves injecting a planet's atmosphere with a cocktail of exotic particles and the occasional sprinkle of glitter just for show.
When visiting an envdeveloped planet, be sure to pack a universal biome-compatibility kit. Breathing the air could either result in a breathtaking experience or just take your breath away, permanently.
Envdevelopment can be found on planets in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, typically because the locals like a bit of pizzazz with their morning view.
Avoid envdevelopment planets during their aesthetic adjustment phases. The incidence of neon-pink sandstorms and paisley-print hurricanes can lead to a condition known locally as 'Too Much of a Good Thing Syndrome.'
In a galactically renowned incident, a rogue envdevelopment went awry and accidentally created a sentient forest that developed a love for interpretative dance. It's still performing to this day, entirely oblivious to its non-existent audience.

Types of poetry, the less-than-famous cousin of hyperventilating prose, are as abundant in the universe as the amount of times Zaphod Beeblebrox has bypassed his own brain filter. From Vogon poetry, which is widely accepted as the third worst in the universe, to the silken sonnets of Sappho of Sigma 14, there's a rhyme and rhythm for all beings blessed with the sense of hearing (and for those without, telepathic poetry readings are a Saturday night hit on Betelgeuse Five).

Specialphp, not to be confused with the common Earth-based scripting language PHP, is a rare, luminescent form of space currency, often used for transactions in the trendier parts of the Andromeda galaxy. Decorated with holographic images of now-extinct space moths, specialphp is known to spontaneously combust when in contact with poor financial decisions, a feature both entertaining and educational.
