Fictional info (?)
Suggested name		Ijitar
Planet type		Cold planet
This cold planet is named after the deity Ijitar, the creator of love and beauty. The planet telescopically displays the complete range of phases, similar to Venus and the Moon, as it moves in its inner orbit relative to TOI-4010, which reoccurs over the so-called synodic period approximately every 93 days. The rotational period and seasonal cycles of Ijitar are likewise similar to those of Earth, as is the tilt that produces the seasons. There are ongoing investigations assessing the present habitability potential of Ijitar, as well as the possibility of extant life. The two polar ice caps appear to be made largely of dust. Because of its fast rotation, the planet's shape is that of an oblate spheroid (it has a slight but noticeable bulge around the equator). The Ijitar system has a unique configuration among those of the planets because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its solar orbit.
