Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameYangmwail
Planet typeTerrestrial
Its orbital period around K2-26 of 15 earth days is the shortest of all the planets in its solar system.

This terrestrial is named after the deity Yangmwail, the bringer of chaos.

Yangmwail's axis has the smallest tilt of any of its solar system's planets.

Future astrobiology missions are planned, including the Yangmwail 3200 and ExoYangmwail rovers.

Because of its rapid rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator).
