Suggested nameSotebi
Planet typeCold planet
Sotebi is the oldest planet known belonging to HD 13808 and one of the smallest in its solar system. It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 30°K (-243°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with ozone thought to make up the lowest clouds, and methane the uppermost layer of clouds. This planet is named after the deity Sotebi, the demon of chaos.

It may have had sulfur dioxide oceans in the past, but these would have vaporized as the temperature rose due to a runaway greenhouse effect.

In November 2400, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Sotebi. The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in Lake Superior.

Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 315 kilometers across when Sotebi is closest because of Tohe-mubi's atmosphere.

Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators.
