| Suggested name | Nyuchu |
| Planet type | Warm planet |
| In English, Nyuchu is often referred to as the "black planet" because the carbon dioxide prevalent on its surface gives it a strange black appearance that is recognizable among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Chabya Mipyu, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, rarely, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.
This warm planet is named after the deity Nyuchu, the messenger of love and beauty.
At this time it may appear as a bright star-like object, but is often far more difficult to observe than Chabya Mipyu.
It is radically different from Earth in other respects.
Nyuchu is the site of Olympus Mountain, the biggest volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system.
In November 1000, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Nyuchu. |
