Suggested nameTartehi
Planet typeCold planet
Tartehi is the fourth planet from HD 113996 and the second-smallest planet in its solar system.

This planet is named after the deity Tartehi, the goddess of the underworld.

As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly two times for every three revolutions it makes around HD 113996.

Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Tartehi's distance from HD 113996 is only about two-thirds (or 73 pct) of its distance at aphelion.

Tartehi's surface is a arid desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism.

In November 2900, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Tartehi.

In 1688, images from Frontier 7 showed Tartehi as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other cold planets.
