Egad and its moon Yeerbor, seen from one of Mesbin's observatories
Name: Egad
Designation: Kaywell Ag
Discovery (Mesbin): Naked Eye Object
Egad, a pale reddish dot to the naked eye, was renamed from the original "Adjar" to reflect the surprising discovery of ice caps on the planet's surface, which caused astronomer and certified rich man Billy-bobrik to shout out "Egad!" in exclamation during the first public unveiling of the Billy-Bobrik Observatory. The planet's ice caps are of unknown composition, but appear to occupy the vast majority of the planet's surface, with only a small strip of reddish brown desert near the equator. The edges of Egad appear to have a slight green tint.
