Jericho is a seemingly ordinary, barren rock moon composed of Silicates with deposits of various light metals with no atmosphere. Jericho stands out on the star charts because of the significant threat it poses to unwary ships entering orbit around the Planet Salina. Visual scans indicate that there is ancient wreckage located near one of the planetary poles. However the space surrounding Jericho is heavily radiated and produces strong electromagnetic interference preventing detailed analysis and exploration of the surface.
