Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameEpukes
Planet typeWarm planet
Epukes and Utir are warm planets rich in rock. For this reason, scientists often classify Epukes and Utir as "warm planets" to distinguish them from the other planets. This warm planet is named after the deity Epukes, the bringer of nature.

Epukes is gravitationally locked with Kepler-386 in a 4:3 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

Epukes can easily be seen from Utir with the naked eye, as can its greenish coloring. Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 210 kilometers across when Epukes is closest because of Utir's atmosphere.
