Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameStohypid
Planet typeHot planet
In English, Stohypid is often referred to as the "white planet" because the oxygen prevalent on its surface gives it a dark white appearance that is distinctive among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.

This planet is named after the deity Stohypid, the bringer of war.

The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to Kepler-116, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 203 days.

As seen from Kepler-116, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.

Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Stohypid's distance from Kepler-116 is only about two-thirds (or 73 pct) of its distance at aphelion.

The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 13 bar, or roughly the pressure found 900 m under the oceans of Cebibriel.

In November 2800, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Stohypid.
