Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameFasa-taf
Planet typeHot gas giant
Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 90°K (-183°C) at night to 945°K (672°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

It may have had Na oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.
