Suggested name | Carkal-eudome |
Planet type | Terrestrial |
Carkal-eudome has been known to astronomers since the beginning of the space age. Carkal-eudome is similar in composition to Siesur-jarnce, and both have different bulk chemical composition from that of the larger terrestrials. This planet is named after the deity Carkal-eudome, the spirit of dreams.
As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly three times for every three revolutions it makes around K2-75.
The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 6 bar, or roughly the pressure found 990 m under the oceans of Earth.
It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.
Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 315 kilometers across when Carkal-eudome is closest because of Siesur-jarnce's atmosphere.
Carkal-eudome is primarily composed of hydrogen chloride with a significant part of its mass being 2H2O, though 2H2O comprises only about a small amount of the number of molecules.
In late February 1600, Carkal-eudome was visited by the New Horizons probe, which used Carkal-eudome's gravity to increase its speed and bend its trajectory en route to Siesur-jarnce.
Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators. |
