Fictional info (?) |
Suggested name | Qiteta Rah |
Planet type | Small hot gas planet |
It is named after the deity Qiteta Rah, the spirit of chaos.
As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly four times for every five revolutions it makes around TOI-402. An observer on Qiteta Rah would therefore see only one summer every two years.
It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.
The Qiteta Rah 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. |
