Suggested nameEnaf
Planet typeLarge hot gas giant
Its orbital period around HAT-P-16 of 2.8 earth days is the shortest of all the planets in its solar system. It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

This planet is named after the deity Enaf, the spirit of prosperity.

It may have had ammonia oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

In November 2500, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Enaf.
