Suggested name | Gekyutsu Ri |
Planet type | Hot gas giant |
It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 40°K (-233°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with ammonium hydrosulfide (NH4SH) thought to make up the lowest clouds, and 2H2O the uppermost layer of clouds. This planet is named after the deity Gekyutsu Ri, the creator of the underworld.
Like Bunutsu-ka, Gekyutsu Ri has been orbiting NGTS-15 for 3.3 billion years, and never exceeds 30 degrees away from NGTS-15. At this time it may appear as a bright star-like object, but is often far more difficult to observe than Bunutsu-ka.
The ethane has probably photodissociated, and the free 2H2O has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a ammonia layer.
Gekyutsu Ri is the site of Ars Montanus, the largest volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system.
Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Gekyutsu Ri approached its equinox 6 years ago. |
