Suggested nameThevos-cathy
Planet typeHuge cold gas giant
The nitrogen has probably photodissociated, and the free nitric oxide has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a planetary magnetic field.

The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 20 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.

A prominent result is the "great white spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first observed by radar.
