Socorro is a terrestrial moon with a thin atmosphere of Carbon Dioxide and Argon. The surface is scorching hot, and mainly composed of Iron with deposits of Nickel. Socorro is tide-locked to the purple giant [[Planet Salina|Salina]], forcing the moon to forever face the Coronado sun.

Socorro is a moon of the [[Planet Salina]], mainly composed of Iron with deposits of [[Nickel]] and an atmosphere of carbon-dioxide and argon. Being tidally locked to Salina, the two hemispheres of the moon experience very different day night cylces. The Salina side of the moon has a day of dim twilight when passing the sun facing side of Salina, a pair of periods of both Salina light and Sunlight in its morning and evening, and a noon of darkness while it basks in the infrared glow of Gas Giant Salina, while the other side experiences a fairly standard day/night cycle of only four and a half standard days each day and each night.

Socorro is a moon of the Planet Salina, mainly composed of Iron with deposits of Nickel and an atmosphere of carbon-dioxide and argon. Being tidally locked to Salina, the two hemispheres of the moon experience very different day night cylces. The Salina side of the moon has a day of dim twilight when passing the sun facing side of Salina, a pair of periods of both Salina light and Sunlight in its morning and evening, and a noon of darkness while it basks in the infrared glow of Gas Giant Salina, while the other side experiences a fairly standard day/night cycle of only four and a half standard days each day and each night.
