Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameHerga
Planet typeCold planet
For this reason, scientists often classify Herga and Ymir'rosa as "cold planets" to distinguish them from the other planets. The planet is named after the deity Herga, the god of the underworld.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Herga 1200 and ExoHerga rovers.

Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 330 kilometers across when Herga is closest because of Earth's atmosphere.

Herga has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Wayfinder flyby missions and later by the Galileo orbiter.
