Suggested nameLycama
Planet typeHot planet
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets.

The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to K2-151 B, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 87 days.

As seen relative to the fixed stars, it rotates on its axis exactly two times for every three revolutions it makes around K2-151 B.
