| Suggested name | Carcal |
| Planet type | Huge hot gas giant |
| Having almost no atmosphere to retain heat, it has surface temperatures that vary diurnally more than on any other planet in its solar system, ranging from 170°K (-103°C) at night to 1190°K (917°C) during the day across the equatorial regions.
The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 0.6 bar, or roughly the pressure found 1575 m under the oceans of Earth.
The outer atmosphere is visibly segregated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along their interacting boundaries. |
