Suggested nameEtafos-use
Planet typeTerrestrial
It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Ipos, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, often, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

Etafos-use's atmosphere is similar to Ipos's in its primary composition of xenon and water vapor, but it contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of other hydrocarbons. It is named after the deity Etafos-use, the creator of dreams.

The sulfur dioxide has probably photodissociated, and the free xenon has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a methane layer.
