Planetary Moons
a.k.a.
Intro
A list of natural satellites of
planets shown or mentioned in
S19.
To be a moon, it must be in orbit of a planet,
however temporarily, not in a passing trajectory.

List
- The Moon: satellite of
Earth before
Breakaway.
After breakaway, it technically is not a moon
(except see next sentence),
but retained the name of The Moon
(though less used in favor of a generic "Alpha" reference?).
However, did it become a
temporary moon again,
orbiting briefly around certain alien planets?
- Psychon's moon:
assuming it survived the destruction of
Psychon,
also became a former moon without a parent planet
(unless subsequently captured by another in the system,
assuming there were any more).
- Six moons of unnamed chlorine planet (in
"The AB Chrysalis").
The moons are airless, but with facilities run by computers.
The moons are arranged in a hexagonal pattern
(speculations: artificial and/or moved into artificial arrangement?),
and are used in a powerful defensive system.
- Entra, large moon of Ellna: has an atmosphere and is inhabited by human-appearing aliens.
The planet itself once was, but is now filled with contagion deadly to them but not Alphans.
