Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameBoskin
Planet typePlanet
The planet is named after the deity Boskin, the messenger of the sky.

When viewed from Earth, this proximity to Kepler-251 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Boskin 2900 and ExoBoskin rovers.

Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators.
