Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Nixait |
Planet type | Huge cold gas giant |
Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 175°K (-98°C) at night to 1120°K (847°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.
A prominent result is the "great brown spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first seen by telescope. |
