Planetary Reproduction

Today's muse, the astronomer Carl Sagan remarked that from a cosmic viewpoint, the space probes since 1959 have the character of a planet preparing to go to seed. Sagan, Carl and Jerome Agel, (1973) "Cosmic Connection: An Extraterrestrial Perspective", (Anchor Press, , ISBN 0-521-78303-8)

It sometimes feels as though the planet, through us, is searching for its kin, or perhaps, its mate.  I wonder what planetary reproduction would look like?
