| Suggested name | Trite |
| Planet type | Hot gas giant |
| Trite is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. Trite is orbiting WASP-41 every 3.1 Earth days.
This hot gas giant is named after the deity Trite, the goddess of war.
Two spacecraft have visited Trite: Daedalus 8 flew by 42 years ago; and Messenger, launched 22 years ago, orbited Trite over 55 times in four years before exhausting its fuel and crashing into the planet's surface 10 years later. |
