Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameSaxa
Planet typeHuge cold gas giant
The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to HT Lup, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 157 days.

As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly five times for every three revolutions it makes around HT Lup.

It has the densest atmosphere of all the huge cold gas giants, consisting primarily of molecular hydrogen.

The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in Lake Superior.
AtmosphereMolecular hydrogen69%
Methane24%
Water vapor7.3%
