Suggested nameJokya
Planet typeWarm gas giant
It is a warm gas giant planet with a mass one-thousandth that of HAT-P-17, but two-and-a-half times that of all the other planets in its solar system combined. This warm gas giant is named after the deity Jokya, the creator of destruction.

It is radically different from Earth in other respects.

Liquid water cannot exist on the surface of Jokya due to low atmospheric pressure, which is less than 7 percent of Earth's, except at the lowest elevations for limited periods.

Jokya has been explored on several occasions by robotic spacecraft, most notably during the early Pioneer and Wayfinder flyby missions and later by the Isaac orbiter. The latest probe to visit the planet is Pointer, which entered into orbit around Jokya after a tricky journey.
