 Orbiting the first planet of the [[system:halna]] system, this large moon orbits its parent planet approximately once every nine standard days, and itself rotates three times every standard day.  It has a highly eccentric orbit, whipping it quite close to the planet every four to five days before slingshotting it back out to it apogee.  Its extremely rapid rotation has given rise to several theories that the moon is actually a captured planetoid or aggregation of matter from the asteroid belt, ensnared by Graveyard's gravity relatively recently (in cosmic terms). Orbiting the first planet of the [[system:halna]] system, this large moon orbits its parent planet approximately once every nine standard days, and itself rotates three times every standard day.  It has a highly eccentric orbit, whipping it quite close to the planet every four to five days before slingshotting it back out to it apogee.  Its extremely rapid rotation has given rise to several theories that the moon is actually a captured planetoid or aggregation of matter from the asteroid belt, ensnared by Graveyard's gravity relatively recently (in cosmic terms).
