Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameKaldaph-garet
Planet typeHot planet
It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Theeeury, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, sometimes, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

This planet is named after the deity Kaldaph-garet, the demon of dreams.

At this time it may appear as a bright star-like object, but is often far more difficult to observe than Theeeury.

An observer on Kaldaph-garet would therefore see only one sunrise every three years.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Kaldaph-garet 2200 and ExoKaldaph-garet rovers.
