Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameYelwei
Planet typeCold planet
The planet is named after the deity Yelwei, the creator of good fortune.

The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to HD 175370, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 168 days.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 24 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

Because of its fast rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).
