Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameNylin Gaeon
Planet typeCold planet
It is named after the deity Nylin Gaeon, the creator of the sky.

An observer on Nylin Gaeon would therefore see only one sunset every two years.

Nylin Gaeon has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Wayfinder flyby missions and later by the Isaac orbiter.

Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Nylin Gaeon approached its equinox 6 years ago.
