| Suggested name | Lassa-tungr |
| Planet type | Huge cold gas giant |
| The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 11 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.
The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of rock. 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 7 meters.
Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator). |
