Tova has a trace atmosphere of Carbon Dioxide and Helium. The surface is mainly composed of Silica laced with iron oxides, indicating the moon had an oxygenated atmosphere at some point in the past. Given the relative youth of the Coronado star and the significant gravity well of Tova, the atmosphere loss must have occurred very quickly, possibly the result of an extremely cataclysmic event.
