Suggested nameCuruha
Planet typeWarm planet
Curuha and Quluner'yseg are warm planets rich in ice. When viewed from Quluner'yseg, Curuha can reach an apparent magnitude of -3, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky. It is named after the deity Curuha, the creator of the underworld.

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 100°K (-173°C) at night to 630°K (357°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

As one of the most prominent objects in the sky, Curuha has been a major inspiration in native folklore for as long as records have existed.

Its apparent magnitude reaches -3, which is surpassed only by Quluner'yseg, Bobof Ifado-m, and Kepler-245.
