| Suggested name | Zhaih |
| Planet type | Cold gas giant |
| Orbiting within Aikokor's orbit, Zhaih is an inferior planet and never appears to venture far from OGLE-2012-BLG-0724L; its maximum angular distance from OGLE-2012-BLG-0724L (elongation) is 48 degrees.
Zhaih and Aikokor are cold gas giants rich in gas. The planet is named after the deity Zhaih, the goddess of dreams.
Zhaih is a cold gas giant and is sometimes called Earth's "brother planet" because of their similar size, mass, proximity to OGLE-2012-BLG-0724L, and bulk composition.
The smooth Borealis basin in the northern hemisphere covers 20 percent of the planet and may be a giant impact feature.
There are ongoing investigations assessing the past habitability potential of Zhaih, as well as the possibility of extant life.
The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries. |
