ADP-291-d

Animus Discovered Planet 291-d is an exoplanet orbiting ADP-291, and the first to be discovered by the PFT. The surface of ADP-291-d is mostly hot, molten rock, craters, and seas of lava, probably caused by a recent collision with another planet or large asteroid (joking called Trojani) that turned its surface from a standard rocky planet, or possibly a potentially habitable planet, to a desolate hell with its atmosphere completely ripped from itself. ADP-291-d has 1 small natural satellite (dubbed "Xiao" by a Chinese scientist).

Discovery
ADP-291-d was the first planet to be discovered by the PFT using the transit method, and then photographed by the instrument aboard the spacecraft. Immediately after the discovery, ADP-291-d was believed to be an Earth-like planet, and the discovery of ADP-291-d was immediately released to the public. This prompted Animus to begin begging the United States Government to give them funds to launch a probe to get there. The US Government initially rejected before the plans to use the exotic matter that Sparky Wolf had stored after Tex gave it to him to create a wormhole in orbit around Mars. At first, the government nearly sent the CEO of Animus to a mental hospital before they realized that it was a worthy plan, and gave them funds.

However, after the Explorer Probe was sent through said wormhole, it was discovered that ADP-291-d was actually an inhospitable waste, and they sadly told the public before moving on to the other planets.
