Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameWengd
Planet typeHot gas giant
Wengd is the closest planet to HAT-P-63 and one of the oldest in its solar system. For this reason, scientists often classify Wengd and Byuwyan-r as "hot gas giants" to distinguish them from the other planets. This hot gas giant is named after the deity Wengd, the creator of nature.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 22 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 240 kilometers across when Wengd is closest because of Earth's atmosphere.

Wengd is primarily composed of ammonium hydrosulfide (NH4SH) with a significant part of its mass being hydrogen deuteride (HD), though hydrogen deuteride (HD) comprises only about a limited fraction of the number of molecules.
