English: Diagram of Rocanons World (fictional) Star System from the Hainsh Cycle books by Ursula Le Guin.

Fomalhaut II also known as Rocanon is described in series as an Iron core planet with a diameter of 6600 miles or about 1.6 earths. It has a heavy oxygen rich atmosphere, a year of 800¼ earth days and a rotation of 29 hours 51 min. Rocanon orbits 3.23 AU from the star and possessing marked season changes. The planet has four continents; south west, north west, east and Antarctic occupying 38 % of the surface. Rocanon has 4 moons, the smallest Heliki,[1] [2] Lioka [3] and the larger Feni & Feli.

This diagram has taken what is known of the fictional Rocanons World from the Hainish Cycle books and inserted that into what is currently known of the real world Fomalhaut star system. Much of the detail is speculative and creative licence.
