Suggested nameCacalirhea
Planet typeHot gas giant
Cacalirhea is the fourth planet from WASP-145 A and the second-smallest planet in its solar system.

This planet is named after the deity Cacalirhea, the bringer of nature.

It is radically different from Aocisco Ga in other respects. It may have had helium oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Cacalirhea 3000 and ExoCacalirhea rovers.

Cacalirhea has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Frontier flyby missions and later by the Galileo orbiter.
