| Suggested name | Abamum |
| Planet type | Cold planet |
| When viewed from Useraq, Abamum can reach an apparent magnitude of -3, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky. It is the coldest planetary atmosphere in its solar system, with a minimum temperature of 60°K (-213°C), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with neon thought to make up the lowest clouds, and sulfur dioxide the uppermost layer of clouds. The planet is named after the deity Abamum, the goddess of the sky.
Abamum was one of the first planets to have its motions plotted across the sky - as early as the second millennium BC.
The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries. |
