Suggested nameCasyco
Planet typeLarge warm gas giant
The interior of Casyco is mainly composed of ices and magma. It is named after the deity Casyco, the god of war.

When viewed from Gelmede Mas, this proximity to Kepler-23 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.

Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 110°K (-163°C) at night to 665°K (392°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

As the closest planet to Gelmede Mas, Casyco has been a prime target for early interplanetary exploration.

Casyco can easily be seen from Gelmede Mas with the naked eye, as can its yellowish coloring.

The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries.
