Suggested nameKiraryu
Planet typePlanet
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

It is named after the deity Kiraryu, the bringer of chaos.

Like Yumimu, Kiraryu has been orbiting Kepler-371 for @STARAGE billion years, and never moves more than 21 degrees away from Kepler-371. When viewed from Earth, this proximity to Kepler-371 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning. The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to Kepler-371, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 58 days.

Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Kiraryu's distance from Kepler-371 is only about two-thirds (or 46 pct) of its distance at aphelion.
