Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameKathe
Planet typeWarm planet
This warm planet is named after the deity Kathe, the god of nature.

An observer on Kathe would therefore see only one summer every three years.

Kathe was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.

Because of its fast rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).

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