| Suggested name | Berher |
| Planet type | Cold planet |
| It is named after the deity Berher, the demon of love and beauty.
Berher is gravitationally locked with Wolf 359 in a 3:2 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.
Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Berher's distance from Wolf 359 is only about two-thirds (or 102 pct) of its distance at aphelion.
The volume of water detected has been estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water in the Black Sea. |
