Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Wopai-zying |
Planet type | Huge cold gas giant |
The planet is named after the deity Wopai-zying, the messenger of chaos.
Like Wenkya Sac, Wopai-zying has been orbiting OGLE-2016-BLG-1635 for @STARAGE billion years, and never exceeds 23 degrees away from OGLE-2016-BLG-1635. The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to OGLE-2016-BLG-1635, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 64 days.
Wopai-zying is a huge cold gas giant and is sometimes called Earth's "brother planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to OGLE-2016-BLG-1635, and bulk composition.
Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Wopai-zying's hazardous precipitation.
Two of Wopai-zying's moons, Ennyoz and Waib Wozh Wolyu, are are quite irregularly shaped.
In November 3300, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Wopai-zying.
Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 435 kilometers across when Wopai-zying is closest because of Earth's atmosphere.
The latest probe to visit the planet is Pioneer, which entered into orbit around Wopai-zying after a lengthy voyage.
Like some of the other huge cold gas giants, Wopai-zying has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons, Ennyoz being the most recognizable one. In 1787, images from Frontier 8 showed Wopai-zying as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other huge cold gas giants. |
