Suggested nameNogyu
Planet typeCold planet
Nogyu is the fourth planet from Kepler-923 and the second-smallest planet in its solar system.

It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 25°K (-248°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with hydrogen thought to make up the lowest clouds, and hydrogen peroxide the uppermost layer of clouds. It is named after the deity Nogyu, the spirit of love and beauty.

When viewed from Earth, this proximity to Kepler-923 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.

Nogyu is a cold planet and is sometimes called Earth's "sister planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to Kepler-923, and bulk composition.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 14 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Nogyu 1700 and ExoNogyu rovers.

In late February 2700, Nogyu was visited by the New Horizons probe, which used Nogyu's gravity to increase its speed and bend its trajectory en route to Ruryu.

Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators.
