Suggested nameFenmona
Planet typeCold planet
It is a cold planet planet with a mass one-thousandth that of K2-170, but two-and-a-half times that of all the other planets in its solar system combined. It is named after the deity Fenmona, the bringer of prosperity.

It is radically different from Earth in other respects. Fenmona is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light. The sulfur dioxide has probably photodissociated, and the free hydrogen deuteride (HD) has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a ammonium hydrosulfide (NH4SH) layer.

Like a few of the other cold planets, Fenmona has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons, Euculo-rok being the most studied one.
