Suggested nameOrazah Ilu
Planet typeHot gas giant
This hot gas giant is named after the deity Orazah Ilu, the goddess of prosperity.

An observer on Orazah Ilu would therefore see only one sunrise every two years.

Two spacecraft have visited Orazah Ilu: Wayfinder 8 flew by 21 years ago; and Messenger, launched 18 years ago, orbited Orazah Ilu over 110 times in four years before exhausting its fuel and crashing into the planet's surface 12 years later.

The 2H2O has probably photodissociated, and the free oxygen has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a planetary magnetic field.

Because of its fast rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).

Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators.
