Zan's Hidden Moon (Alpha Site)
Because of the strange magnetic pull of Zan, and the sun, the moon's gravitational orbit, always seems to stay hidden in the shadow of the planet. Its tiny for a moon (smaller then Pluto), its 1,376.6 km (855 miles) in diameter, and for those looking for it, or the odd time it is detected, it seems more like a large satellite (or asteroid) orbiting the planet. Only when all of the planets are lined up in that system is the moon visible as a moon, but that only happens every couple of centuries. The atmosphere is breathable, as its in the shadows, its much cooler the Zan itself, the temperature seem to run at a constant 70 degrees (21 C), its unpopulated, there are large rugged hills at each of the poles, and the remainder of the moon, is scattered with bushes, and tall grasses, and some strange small wild life. There is rain, but there doesn't appear to be any pond or lakes, but they are there under some of the tall grasses. The water system stretches from the hills at one pole to the other pole via rivers and lakes.
