Suggested nameGahipu
Planet typeCold planet
When viewed from Nyakya, Gahipu can reach an apparent magnitude of -3, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky. It is named after the deity Gahipu, the spirit of the sea.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 35 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.
