Suggested name | Erivi Nomia |
Planet type | Cold planet |
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Uqmone, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, sometimes, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight. Orbiting within Uqmone's orbit, Erivi Nomia is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from Kepler-1073; its maximum angular distance from Kepler-1073 (elongation) is 53 degrees.
Erivi Nomia is the only habitable planet orbiting Kepler-1073 and one of the smallest in its solar system. The planet is named after the deity Erivi Nomia, the demon of the sea.
Like Uqmone, Erivi Nomia has been orbiting Kepler-1073 for 3.7 billion years, and never exceeds 20 degrees away from Kepler-1073.
Two spacecraft have visited Erivi Nomia: Frontier 9 flew by 20 years ago; and Messenger, launched 23 years ago, orbited Erivi Nomia over 80 times in four years before exhausting its reactor and crashing into the planet's surface 10 years later.
Two of Erivi Nomia's moons, Dieri-rax and Chona Mab, are are slightly irregularly shaped.
Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Erivi Nomia 2900 and ExoErivi Nomia rovers. 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 7 meters.
Erivi Nomia is primarily composed of oxygen with a significant part of its mass being methane, though methane comprises only about a small amount of the number of molecules. Surrounding Erivi Nomia is a thin planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.
This arid planet is mostly populated by friendly but shy poisonous oceanic creatures called the "Meendene". They feed on the ground by killing the Galacisco'ke Most of them are related to the Renoe, have 8 eyes and vary in size from 70 to 130 mm. They can reproduce at temperatures from -40 to -20°C and also predators attacking which is common on Erivi nomia. |
