Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameGaizu
Planet typeCold planet
The planet is named after the deity Gaizu, the god of the sky.

Gaizu's surface is a arid desertscape interspersed with slab-like rocks and is periodically resurfaced by volcanism.

Liquid water cannot exist on the surface of Gaizu due to low atmospheric pressure, which is less than 9 percent of Myame's, except at the highest elevations for limited periods.

The latest probe to visit the planet is Juno, which entered into orbit around Gaizu after a troublesome journey.

In 1688, images from Wayfinder 8 showed Gaizu as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other cold planets.
