Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameYkec
Planet typeHot gas giant
It is named after the deity Ykec, the spirit of destruction.

The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 10 meters.

Surrounding Ykec is a thin planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.
