Suggested name | Rahicho |
Planet type | Cold planet |
This planet is named after the deity Rahicho, the spirit of good fortune.
It has the densest atmosphere of the cold planets, consisting partly of oxygen. Rahicho's surface is a barren desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism.
It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.
Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 285 kilometers across when Rahicho is closest because of Earth's atmosphere.
Rahicho 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. |
