Giessen is a small moon orbiting Planet Odense on an elliptical path. Influenced heavily by the gravity of the two nearby suns, the small moon is nearly torn apart as it passes next to the larger sun, thus creating large crevices all across it's surface. Giessen consists of a crust of frozen nitrogen over an icy mantle believed to cover a substantial core of rock and metal. The core makes up two-thirds of its total mass.
