Starship Asterisk*

My answer to the question at the start of the explanation; it looks like an asteroid, a remastered asteroid that has assumed the duties of a shepard moon. I guess that slarty has equiptment that could do better, not.

Bystander and Owlice yea ! How bout this "moon" B a captured astroid or a wandering ring child and being @ a Lagrange point accounts for the smooth, somehow. Ya think ?

I pretty much agree w/thongar & redbone. No dark sand streaks. More likley dark (black) material (rock) suface being covered by windblown lighter material (sand). No pellets no oil no liquid and probably no quakes.
