Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameYozhwai
Planet typeHuge cold gas giant
It is named after the deity Yozhwai, the goddess of love and beauty.

It may have had helium oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.
