Suggested name | Vosmeskoll Ly |
Planet type | Cold planet |
It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 65°K (-208°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with methane thought to make up the lowest clouds, and water vapor the uppermost layer of clouds. It is named after the deity Vosmeskoll Ly, the god of love and beauty.
The xenon has probably photodissociated, and the free water vapor has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a carbon monoxide layer.
Vosmeskoll Ly's dense atmosphere render observation of its surface challenging in ultraviolet light, and the first detailed maps did not emerge until the arrival of the Magellan orbiter 56 years ago. Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Vosmeskoll Ly's strong magnetosphere.
The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Vosmeskoll Ly are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. |
