Suggested nameNisnar
Planet typeCold planet
As seen from Kepler-1040 A, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 33 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of sand. The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in the Black Sea.
