Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameNtaso
Planet typeCold planet
In English, Ntaso is often referred to as the "brown planet" because the xenon prevalent on its surface gives it a pale brown appearance that is unusual among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.

Ntaso has been known to astronomers since the beginning of the space age. This planet is named after the deity Ntaso, the messenger of nature.

Ntaso is a cold planet and is sometimes called Earth's "twin planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to HD 52265, and bulk composition.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Ntaso 1300 and ExoNtaso rovers.

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