Graymun as seen from an observatory on the surface of Mesbin.

Name: Kerbmun.

Discovery (Mesbin): Folklore/General Knowledge and Naked Eye Object.

Graymun is the largest object in the sky, due to its relatively large size and proximity to Mesbin's surface. Graymun has a surface apparently quite similar to Mesbin, a gray rocky surface covered in impact craters. Of particular interest are the darker flat regions on Graymun, which seem to be less cratered. Using a large telescope from Mesbin's surface, individual large boulders can be observed--and potentially, large spacecrafts too!

Physical Properties

  • Equatorial Radius = 1810 km
  • Polar Radius = 1800 km
  • Mean Radius = 1805 km
  • Mass = 1.26 x 10^21 kg = 0.00021153 Earth Masses = 0.02387 Kerbin Masses.
  • Surface Gravity = 0.265 Gee
  • Rotation Period = 9017.94 seconds (2 hours 30 minutes 18 seconds)

Orbital Properties

  • Parent Body = Mesbin
  • Semi Major Axis = 8,037,094 meters.
  • Orbital Period = 9017.94 seconds (2 hours 30 minutes 18 seconds)
  • Eccentricity = 0.02
  • Inclination = 0.1°
  • Mean Anomaly At Epoch = 332°
  • Argument of Periapsis = 125°
  • Longitude of Ascending Node = 235°

Geology

Graymun is covered in craters with flat dark maria breaking up its rugged gray highlands. The terrain is nearly identical in composition to that on Mesbin and is very similar to that found on Kerbmun.
