@VectorY Tidal heating is where a moon is at the perfect distance that it's tempature is suitable for life. Mostly, for tidal heating it will mostly be gas giants, but it can also be big planets. Etc.

Dude that is not exactly what tidal heating is @QuantumSpaceIndustries. So @VectorY, in simple terms, tidal heating is the gravity of the parent planet or object acting on the celestial body, typically deforming it. In some cases like Io, tidal heating can make the moon or object geologically active.
