Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameGyaezu-joshu
Planet typeCold planet
This cold planet is named after the deity Gyaezu-joshu, the messenger of dreams.

Gyaezu-joshu is gravitationally locked with Kepler-831 in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of methane ice.

Gyaezu-joshu is primarily composed of nitrogen with a significant part of its mass being ethane, though ethane comprises only about a limited fraction of the number of molecules. The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries.

Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Gyaezu-joshu approached its equinox 8 years ago.
