Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameNixhe-skoll
Planet typeCold planet
The planet is named after the deity Nixhe-skoll, the goddess of the sea.

Nixhe-skoll is gravitationally locked with Kepler-1380 in a 2:1 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

Nixhe-skoll is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light.

A prominent result is the "great blue spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first detected by scanner.

Wind speeds can reach 63 metres per second.
