Did you just read one of the Bobiverse books? I just searched this like 3 days ago because the Bobs were talking about it.
Not the Bobiverse. I don't know that series yet. Do you recommend it?
I had to check my history:
Snowball Earth->Tonian->Boring Billion->Purple Earth Hypothesis
Definitely recommend the series, and the audio books narrated by Ray Porter are excellent as well.

Two of the Bobs were talking about a purple planet and said it was due to retinal so I had to look it up.

For better or worse, you can't just make a normal-looking list in markdown. It all runs together into a single paragraph. You have to add two spaces to the end of each line in order to keep the line breaks. Or you could add an asterisk and space at the front of each line for a bulleted list.

Fixed now.
Also, what does "due to retinal" mean?
The bobiverse is quite enjoyable if you're looking for some light, good natured space fun. The story is pretty original.
Let me spoil the events of the first chapter or two of We Are Legion.
Spoiler
Guy gets rich making an app and selling it to Google (or whoever). On the way home, as a joke, he takes some of the money and signs up for a company that freezes your head after death. He is immediately hit by a car and dies.
Fast forward 200 years: he wakes up!
Turns out his consciousness is not in his brain at all. He's in a computer. They stick him in a deep space probe and launch him into space. This is a special probe that can self-replicate at the atomic level. He can literally clone his (probe) body and consciousness.
Then shenanigans happen.
It's a really good series.
Excellent series. Waiting for the 5th to come out in print (its audio book only until later this year)
