Suggested nameKeixwo
Planet typeCold gas giant
Keixwo is the oldest planet known belonging to WASP-60 and one of the smallest in its solar system. Keixwo and Yuanshwei are cold gas giants rich in gas. The planet is named after the deity Keixwo, the god of nature.

Two spacecraft have visited Keixwo: Wayfinder 8 flew by 47 years ago; and Messenger, launched 8 years ago, orbited Keixwo over 155 times in four years before exhausting its plasma drive and crashing into the planet's atmosphere 9 years later.

Keixwo's surface is a dry desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism.

Keixwo is the site of Celestium Mountain, the tallest volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system.

The largest moon, Fyifoum Aijwang, has a diameter greater than that of the planet Mercury.
