Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameYagaom'yi
Planet typeHuge cold gas giant
The helium has probably photodissociated, and the free carbon dioxide has been swept into interplanetary space by the solar wind because of the lack of a planetary magnetic field.

Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).
