Suggested nameWaji'nono
Planet typeHot planet
Waji'nono is the fourth planet from Kepler-173 and the second-smallest planet in its solar system. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Temupya, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, sometimes, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

This hot planet is named after the deity Waji'nono, the god of the sky.

Waji'nono is gravitationally locked with Kepler-173 in a 5:4 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

It is radically different from Temupya in other respects.

It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.

Waji'nono has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Frontier flyby missions and later by the Hotchins orbiter.
