Fictional info (?)
Suggested namePhaëcha
Planet typeHot gas giant
It is named after the deity Phaëcha, the spirit of nature.

When viewed from Earth, this proximity to TOI-2570 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.

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 140°K (-133°C) at night to 770°K (497°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.

The volume of water ice in the south polar ice cap, if melted, would be sufficient to cover the entire planetary surface to a depth of 10 meters.

Phaëcha can easily be seen from Lechal Berion with the naked eye, as can its whiteish coloring.

Surrounding Phaëcha is a thin planetary ring system and a powerful magnetosphere.
