The Night-Eye is the Garbaterra's only natural satellite. Although not the largest natural satellite in the Solar System, it is the largest relative to the size of the object it orbits (its primary.

The Night-Eye is in synchronous rotation with Garbaterra, always showing the same face with its near side marked by dark volcanic mare that fill between the bright ancient crustal highlands and the prominent impact craters. It is the most luminous object in the sky after the Joras. Although it appears a very bright white, its surface is actually dark, with a reflectance just slightly higher than that of worn asphalt.
