Goldilocks space is like "my breath immediately turns solid in the shade and my body is turning to charcoal in the direct sunlight"

You need a giant buffer of atmosphere to help average the temperature a bit. Maybe some kind of large rock with a dense atmosphere?

That or a giant space turtle with elephants holding a flatten rock on it's back.

But what's holding up the elephants?

WRONG! It is turtles actually. It's elephants alternating with turtles (and then every tenth level is capybaras) all the way down.

If you go that way you gotta have at least 8 colors.

that's not quite right. see that turtle has its own sun and moon chasing it around. and they did the math the sun and moon are superluminal bodies

A strong thaumic field slows down the sunlight too. Doesn't change the heat but it's nice to see sunrise pour across the landscape like honey
