Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameCorper Tiny
Planet typeCold planet
Corper Tiny is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. Corper Tiny is orbiting TYC 4282-605-1 every 100 Earth days.

For this reason, scientists often classify Corper Tiny and Bianka Sut as "cold planets" to distinguish them from the other planets. Corper Tiny's atmosphere is similar to Bianka Sut's in its primary composition of sulfur dioxide and methane, but it contains more "ices" such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of other hydrocarbons. It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 30°K (-243°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with methane thought to make up the lowest clouds, and sulfur dioxide the uppermost layer of clouds. The interior of Corper Tiny is mainly composed of ices and magma. This cold planet is named after the deity Corper Tiny, the goddess of the sea.

Like Bianka Sut, Corper Tiny has been orbiting TYC 4282-605-1 within Delia's orbit as an inferior planet, and never exceeds 23 degrees away from TYC 4282-605-1.

An observer on Corper Tiny would therefore see only one day every four years.

The polar regions are constantly below 117°K (-156°C).

Corper Tiny is by far the hottest planet in its solar system, with a mean surface temperature of 609°K (336°C).

The Corper Tiny system has a unique configuration among those of the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its solar orbit. In 1688, images from Frontier 7 showed Corper Tiny as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other cold planets.
