| Suggested name | Dusnaq |
| Planet type | Cold planet |
| When viewed from Mephaë Forn, Dusnaq can reach an apparent magnitude of -3, bright enough for its reflected light to cast shadows, and making it on average the third-brightest object in the night sky. The planet is named after the deity Dusnaq, the messenger of hate.
When viewed from Earth, this proximity to TOI-717 means the planet can only be seen near the western or eastern horizon during the early evening or early morning.
Dusnaq is the site of Titanic Ridge, the tallest volcano and second-highest known mountain in its solar system, and of Valles Marineris, one of the largest canyons in its solar system. |
