Chenet (Celestial Classification HD-044P5) is a mountainous terrestrial planet and the fifth planet in the Nethierre star system, located in the North-Eastern section of the Human astral territory. Positioned around 0.06 astronomical units away from the red dwarf star, it completes one full orbit every 426 hours. Chenet's nature as a tidally locked body means its rotational period lasts the same amount of time. Large clay deposits on Chenet's surface have led to a dull yellow colouration. The planet has evolved no kind of self-sustaining life, due to a lack of an atmosphere and surface liquids.
Chenet is primarily used as space for cooled storage facilities, owing to its consistent and very low ambient temperature. As such, there are some temporary workers operating on shifts at these facilities, but no permanent residents. Chances to begin mining the clay deposits present on the surface have been considered, but not confirmed due to the various toxic chemicals mixed in with the material.
