Desert Moon

Summary
Desert moons are cold, airless, sand-filled moons. They are mostly safe and offer a good opportunity to mine erchius fuel of both kinds without a threat of the ghost, as well as Plutonium. They tend to have low gravity.

Codex Description
This desert moon is dry, frozen, dusty and unpopulated. Low temperatures mean you should bring some limited measure of cold protection.

A lifeless desert moon. Take care, as the temperature is slightly freezing and will eventually prove fatal if you are not cautious.

A cold, sandy desert moon. A thin layer of cold protection should be sufficient to protect you.

Protection Required
There's no air on the desert moon, so you will need breathing protection. You will also need low-tier cold protection.

Locating
Desert moons never appear as main planets - only as satellites. They can be found in hot, habitable, and cold areas of Red, Blue, and Binary stars, as well as in all areas of Dying stars.

Weather
Desert moons have the same weather as vanilla desert planets - mostly clear with rare sandstorms.

Notable Features
You can find Crystal Erchius Fuel, Moonstone and Plutonium on desert moons.

There are no crops or trees.
