Suggested nameAkony'k
Planet typeCold planet
Akony'k is the smallest and most crater filled planet in its solar system. 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 Akony'k, the goddess of destruction.

As seen from Kepler-37, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.
