Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameShipopo-ja
Planet typeLarge cold gas giant
Its orbital period around MOA-2009-BLG-387L of 2000 earth days is the shortest of all the planets in its solar system. Shipopo-ja is the fourth planet from MOA-2009-BLG-387L and the second-smallest planet in its solar system.

Shipopo-ja and Bosona are large cold gas giants rich in gas. It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 50°K (-223°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with 2H2O thought to make up the lowest clouds, and carbonyl sulfide the uppermost layer of clouds. This planet is named after the deity Shipopo-ja, the demon of the sea.

Like Bosona, Shipopo-ja has been orbiting MOA-2009-BLG-387L for @STARAGE billion years, and never moves more than 29 degrees away from MOA-2009-BLG-387L.

The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Shipopo-ja are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons.
