Suggested nameRine Kuzuf
Planet typeCold planet
This cold planet is named after the deity Rine Kuzuf, the spirit of dreams.

As seen from K2-352, in a frame of reference that rotates with the orbital motion, it appears to rotate only once every two years.

Rine Kuzuf's surface appears slightly rippled and is similar in appearance to the Moon's, indicating that it has been geologically inactive for billions of years. The polar regions are constantly below 108°K (-165°C).

The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Rine Kuzuf are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons.

In November 1100, NASA reported finding a large amount of underground ice in the Utopia Planitia region of Rine Kuzuf.

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). A prominent result is the "great white spot", a giant storm that is known to have existed for centuries since it was first seen by telescope.
