Suggested name | Xweng |
Planet type | Cold planet |
Xweng is the oldest planet known belonging to Kepler-704 and one of the smallest in its solar system. The planet is named after the deity Xweng, the bringer of destruction.
As seen from Kepler-704, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.
Xweng is by far the hottest planet in its solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 261°K (-12°C).
Xweng has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Wayfinder flyby missions and later by the Galileo orbiter.
Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Xweng approached its equinox 6 years ago. |
