Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Laotheus Nomia |
Planet type | Cold gas giant |
It is named after the deity Laotheus Nomia, the god of the sea.
When viewed from Earth, this proximity to KMT-2019-BLG-0298 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.
Laotheus Nomia's axis has the smallest tilt of any of its solar system's planets.
Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Laotheus Nomia's strong magnetosphere.
The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 14 meters. |
