Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameChapya
Planet typeCold planet
Chapya is a terrestrial planet with a thin atmosphere, having surface features reminiscent both of the impact craters of the Moon and the valleys, deserts, and polar ice caps of Earth. Chapya is orbiting HD 66141 every 480 Earth days. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Roryuna Gyo, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, rarely, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

This cold planet is named after the deity Chapya, the demon of destruction.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Chapya 1500 and ExoChapya rovers.

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