Most surfaces in space look like a quarry. So that's fair. You could also include the ones that are on fire and the ones inside of some sort of toxic cloud.

But the exceptions are the most interesting parts. There's a reason there's not much entertainment out there about people stranded in deserts, mountains, and open oceans that feature not a single encounter with life.

I've played Star Citizen, roaming dead space and lifeless planets gets old fast.

Is most surface area on planets/asteroids, or on stars?

Walkable and filmable? It would be the rocky ones.
