Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameRihi
Planet typeHot gas giant
The planet is named after the deity Rihi, the creator of the underworld.

Like Yokamya To, Rihi has been orbiting WASP-174 within Nyouwa's orbit as an inferior planet, and never moves more than 18 degrees away from WASP-174.

Rihi was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Rihi 1600 and ExoRihi rovers.

Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 420 kilometers across when Rihi is closest because of Yokamya To's atmosphere.
