Fictional info (?)
Suggested name		Ugipyv
Planet type		Huge cold gas giant
Ugipyv's atmosphere is similar to Lavefu Nir's in its primary composition of xenon and ammonia, but it contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of other hydrocarbons. It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 78°K (-195°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with ammonia thought to make up the lowest clouds, and xenon the uppermost layer of clouds. This huge cold gas giant is named after the deity Ugipyv, the messenger of the sky. It may have had oxygen oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect. As the closest planet to Lavefu Nir, Ugipyv has been a prime target for early extra solar exploration. The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Ugipyv are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. A prominent result is the "great black spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first observed by radar. Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators. Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Ugipyv approached its equinox 3 years ago.
