Description
This is a fictional texture for the hypothetical/disproven planet Phaeton. In case you don’t know, Phaeton was the hypothetical missing planet between Mars and Jupiter, that was destroyed in the early days of the solar system, and formed the asteroid belt. Phaeton was disproven when scientists discovered that all the asteroids in the asteroid belt put together has less mass than the moon, and wouldn’t have been able to form into a planet. If it did, it would be smaller than Pluto, and thus the smallest major planet in the solar system.
