Would need the book you are studying to know this, sorry, no help here! I don't know! .

I could just make up a word, like Rianet (ringed planet), but that's just a made up work to go with a made up idea! We can only guess at a situation like this, we really have no way of knowing. I hope you are feeling better today--recovering from your gunshot wound!

They noticed that most of the stars stayed fixed in one place (in the days before satellites could be seen zipping overhead) while a handful actually changed location from night to night.
