Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameIologe
Planet typeHot gas giant
Iologe is the strangest and most round planet in its solar system.

It is a hot gas giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of HAT-P-6, but two-and-a-half times that of all the other planets in its solar system combined. This planet is named after the deity Iologe, the goddess of destruction.

Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 105°K (-168°C) at night to 1050°K (777°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

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

Iologe can easily be seen from Onelaris with the naked eye, as can its brownish coloring.

Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Iologe approached its equinox 6 years ago.
