Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameEmym
Planet typeCold planet
It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Derina-wek, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, often, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight. Orbiting within Derina-wek's orbit, Emym is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from EPIC 212297394; its maximum angular distance from EPIC 212297394 (elongation) is 58 degrees.

It is named after the deity Emym, the demon of the sea.

Plans have been proposed for rovers or more complex missions, but they are hindered by Emym's hazardous precipitation.
