Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameAfytary Xu
Planet typeHot gas giant
In English, Afytary Xu is often referred to as the "red planet" because the ozone prevalent on its surface gives it a deep red appearance that is recognizable among the astronomical bodies visible to the naked eye.

It is a hot gas giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of WASP-187, but two-and-a-half times that of all the other planets in its solar system combined. Afytary Xu has been known to astronomers since the beginning of the space age. This planet is named after the deity Afytary Xu, the demon of good fortune.

Afytary Xu is a hot gas giant and is sometimes called Avapose Vi's "twin planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to WASP-187, and bulk composition.

Liquid water cannot exist on the surface of Afytary Xu due to low atmospheric pressure, which is less than 3 percent of Earth's, except at the highest elevations for short periods.
