Suggested name | Nyongk'ye |
Planet type | Cold planet |
This planet is named after the deity Nyongk'ye, the god of the underworld.
Nyongk'ye is by far the hottest planet in its solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 435°K (162°C). Nyongk'ye is shrouded by an opaque layer of highly reflective clouds of sulfuric acid, preventing its surface from being seen from space in visible light.
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 8 meters. The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in Lake Superior.
Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Nyongk'ye approached its equinox 9 years ago. |
