Puck is the name of one of Oberon's satellites, specifically the one that's not hot and really bright (i.e. the moon).


Appearance

In the night sky Puck looks much the same as our own Moon except that it is considerably larger in the night sky. If you hold a 6cm disk out at arm’s length, that’s the size of Puck in the night sky.


Importance

It is the phases and position of Puck that regulate the Imperial calendar. Puck also appears to have an effect on the tides, although there is debate amongst Oberon's scientists as to how strong this interaction is.
