Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameSonke Puwa
Planet typeTerrestrial
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 is named after the deity Sonke Puwa, the spirit of the underworld.

The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Sonke Puwa are likewise similar to those of Myudo, as is the tilt that produces the seasons.

Its apparent magnitude reaches -3, which is surpassed only by Myudo, Kojipiwa, and Kepler-123.

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

The latest probe to visit the planet is Pointer, which entered into orbit around Sonke Puwa after a challenging journey.

Wind speeds can reach 99 metres per second.
