Suggested namePyaka-shujo
Planet typeHot planet
Pyaka-shujo is the oldest planet known belonging to K2-131 and one of the smallest in its solar system. Pyaka-shujo and Chogu Pya are hot planets rich in rock. The planet is named after the deity Pyaka-shujo, the demon of the underworld.

An observer on Pyaka-shujo would therefore see only one day every five years.

Pyaka-shujo's surface appears very cratered and is similar in appearance to the Moon's, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years.

Pyaka-shujo's surface is a dry desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism.

There are ongoing investigations assessing the present habitability potential of Pyaka-shujo, as well as the possibility of extant life.

The Pyaka-shujo system has a unique configuration among those of the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its solar orbit.
