| Suggested name | Kenqe |
| Planet type | Cold planet |
| Kenqe's atmosphere is similar to Yang Zeng's in its primary composition of 2H2O and ethane, but it contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of other hydrocarbons. This cold planet is named after the deity Kenqe, the messenger of chaos.
At this time it may appear as a bright star-like object, but is often far more difficult to observe than Yang Zeng.
As one of the brightest objects in the sky, Kenqe has been a major inspiration in native culture for as long as records have existed.
Kenqe's dense clouds render observation of its surface challenging in ultraviolet light, and the first detailed maps did not emerge until the arrival of the Magellan orbiter 64 years ago.
Surrounding Kenqe is a vast planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere. |
