The furhest planet in the Astrae system, a sort of pluto-ish thing.
Its ice valleys are kinda glowee at night, because it seemed cool.
I think it looks mediocre at best from orbitt, but amazing on the surface.

I think ice moons and planets can glow a little because they absorb up light from the sun so the glowing could be considered realistic!

@Thorne yes, if you look at Cassini pictures of Enceladus the cracks seem kinda glow-y, because the ice is relatively new, so it's super clear, with no cracks or pores, although i'm not sure that this can happen at night? (maybe it's super clear ice inside so the light can go through the planet? as if it were a ball of glass covered in dust in some areas?)
