SUMMARY
This small moon closely orbiting its parent with a 4.7 hour orbit has a surface completely covered with canyons -- a true rarity in Odyssey.
DESCRIPTION

A Canyon Runner's Paradise

Imagine racing through canyons in your eagle as the planet you're on races in it's orbit around it's parent body! This small moon (600 km radius) has canyons in every direction as far as the eye can see -- finding a canyon here requires no lat/long.

A closer view of the canyons

The soft glow of a nearby L-type parent star set against the backdrop of the Greae Phio dark nebula makes this an exciting and dramatic place to race!

A view from the surface: the moon's view of its close parent planet and L-type star

The planet also hosts a legacy bio (1 not yet identified) and geo signals (3: fumaroles, lava spouts and 1 more). So break out the SRV and collect a few materials in your spare time.

While it's a bit of a hike from the bubble, the views and the canyons are well worth it!

Also in the same sector, you can find at several tourist beacons:

  • Greae Phio QI-L c23-34 "Mirror Image" ~27 Ly
  • Greae Phio DT-G d11-169 "An Electric System" 97.15ly
  • Greae Phio DL-Y e9 "Huge Ring" 972.58ly
