| Suggested name | Pacho |
| Planet type | Huge cold gas giant |
| In English, Pacho is often referred to as the "white planet" because the ammonia prevalent on its surface gives it a dark white appearance that is unusual among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.
For this reason, scientists often classify Pacho and Stegel'qeq as "huge cold gas giants" to distinguish them from the other planets. This huge cold gas giant is named after the deity Pacho, the demon of the underworld.
Pacho is the site of Robusto Peak, the most active volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system. |
