When viewed from Earth, this proximity to HD 217107 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.

The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of ice.

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).
