Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Yasosho |
Planet type | Cold planet |
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.
The interior of Yasosho is mainly composed of ices and stone. The planet is named after the deity Yasosho, the bringer of the sky.
As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly four times for every five revolutions it makes around HD 26965.
Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Yasosho's distance from HD 26965 is only about two-thirds (or 50 pct) of its distance at aphelion.
Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Yasosho's hazardous precipitation.
Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Yasosho 2400 and ExoYasosho rovers. The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 14 meters. The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in the Black Sea.
Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Yasosho approached its equinox 5 years ago. |
