Suggested nameLithys Triel
Planet typeLarge cold gas giant
The planet is named after the deity Lithys Triel, the goddess of the sky.

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 120°K (-153°C) at night to 840°K (567°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

Lithys Triel is by far the hottest planet in its solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 631°K (358°C).

Lithys Triel was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.

Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Lithys Triel's hazardous precipitation.

These may be captured asteroids similar to Eureka.

In late February 2500, Lithys Triel was visited by the New Horizons probe, which used Lithys Triel's gravity to increase its speed and bend its trajectory en route to Pacor'nylypuck.
