Suggested nameBanpuck
Planet typeSmall cold gas planet
Banpuck is similar in composition to Psasto, and both have different bulk chemical composition from that of the larger small cold gas planets. The planet is named after the deity Banpuck, the goddess of prosperity.

An observer on Banpuck would therefore see only one summer every three years.

In November 2800, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Banpuck.

In 3078, images from Wayfinder 6 showed Banpuck as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other small cold gas planets.
