Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameApuslachal Si
Planet typeHot planet
It is a hot planet planet with a mass one-thousandth that of HD 103720, but two-and-a-half times that of all the other planets in its solar system combined. It is named after the deity Apuslachal Si, the bringer of love and beauty.

When viewed from Earth, this proximity to HD 103720 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning. The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to HD 103720, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 128 days.

As the closest planet to Hesyco, Apuslachal Si has been a prime target for early extra solar exploration.

In late February 3200, Apuslachal Si was visited by the New Horizons probe, which used Apuslachal Si's gravity to increase its speed and bend its trajectory en route to Hesyco.

Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators.
