Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameAncheng-ryao
Planet typeCold planet
It is named after the deity Ancheng-ryao, the demon of nature.

Ancheng-ryao is gravitationally locked with 6 Lyn in a 2:1 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system. As seen from 6 Lyn, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.

It was the one of the first exoplanets visited by a spacecraft, and one of the first to be successfully landed on.

The largest moon, Sengp Yin, has a diameter greater than that of the planet Jupiter.
