Suggested nameDeicisco
Planet typeHot planet
Deicisco has been known to astronomers since the medieval. This hot planet is named after the deity Deicisco, the goddess of chaos.

Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Deicisco's distance from K2-168 is only about two-thirds (or 40 pct) of its distance at aphelion.

Deicisco was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.

A prominent result is the "great brown spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first observed by radar.
