Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameNewa
Planet typeCold planet
It is named after the deity Newa, the bringer of dreams.

The formaldehyde has probably photodissociated, and the free water vapor has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a 2H2O layer.

Liquid water cannot exist on the surface of Newa due to low atmospheric pressure, which is less than 6 percent of Bahyumyu So's, except at the lowest elevations for short periods. The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 15 meters.
