Airmed

Description

The innermost moon of Sirona, Airmed has lived a violent life that has left it battered and scarred. And what's with the weird two-toned surface? Despite its oddities, Airmed is the best place to be if you want to gaze back at its impressive parent planet. Just be sure to bring a camera.
