Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameCalpsa Al
Planet typeHot gas giant
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

This hot gas giant is named after the deity Calpsa Al, the demon of chaos.

Calpsa Al's dense atmosphere make observation of its surface challenging in infrared light, and the first detailed maps did not emerge until the arrival of the Magellan orbiter 52 years ago.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Calpsa Al 2700 and ExoCalpsa Al rovers.

A prominent result is the "great white spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first detected by scanner.
