Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Berdita |
Planet type | Hot gas giant |
Berdita is the strangest and most crater filled planet in its solar system. Orbiting within Stedeuces's orbit, Berdita is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from NGTS-1; its maximum angular distance from NGTS-1 (elongation) is 41 degrees.
It is named after the deity Berdita, the creator of fear.
As the closest planet to Stedeuces, Berdita has been a prime target for early extra solar exploration.
The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 19 meters.
The Berdita system has a unique configuration among those of the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its solar orbit. |
