Suggested nameMenyu-riacha
Planet typeTerrestrial
It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Gesha Ndo, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, rarely, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

It is named after the deity Menyu-riacha, the goddess of prosperity.

It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.

In November 1800, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Menyu-riacha.

Menyu-riacha can easily be seen from Gesha Ndo with the naked eye, as can its blackish coloring.
