Fictional info (?)
Suggested nameKyagu
Planet typeCold planet
It has the longest rotation period (445 days) of any planet in its solar system and rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets. It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after Sewa, reaching an apparent magnitude of -5 - bright enough to cast shadows at night and, often, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.

When viewed from Sewa, Kyagu 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 Kyagu, the goddess of the sea.

Like Sewa, Kyagu has been orbiting beta Cnc within Riryo-pipyu's orbit as an inferior planet, and never moves more than 13 degrees away from beta Cnc.
