Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Kalpal-la |
Planet type | Large cold gas giant |
Kalpal-la is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. Kalpal-la is orbiting NGTS-20 every 54 Earth days.
This large cold gas giant is named after the deity Kalpal-la, the demon of the sea.
It is radically different from Earth in other respects.
Kalpal-la is primarily composed of nitrogen with a significant part of its mass being helium, though helium comprises only about a limited fraction of the number of molecules. |
Atmosphere | Nitrogen | 41% |
