Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameMoon'daph
Planet typeCold planet
This planet is named after the deity Moon'daph, the demon of chaos.

Moon'daph is gravitationally locked with HIP 68468 in a 5:4 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system. An observer on Moon'daph would therefore see only one winter every two years.

There are ongoing investigations assessing the present habitability potential of Moon'daph, as well as the possibility of extant life.
