Herne is Planet Steinfurt's only natural satellite, locked with it in a close orbit. Its relatively quick orbital period of 18 standard days allows it to escape most of the comets and planetoids that wander into a collision course with Steinfurt on a regular basis. The moon itself is composed mostly of volcanic rock and a modest amount of Helium and hydrogen gas, thus holding little to no value for commercial extraction.
