| Suggested name | Tepid |
| Planet type | Warm gas giant |
| Tepid and Oneprax are warm gas giants rich in iron. This warm gas giant is named after the deity Tepid, the bringer of the sea.
An observer on Tepid would therefore see only one day every three years.
It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.
There are ongoing investigations assessing the present habitability potential of Tepid, as well as the possibility of extant life. |
