Te[1] is a gas giant orbiting the star Svir in Covenant-controlled territory, primarily composed of nitrogen, helium, and methane. It is orbited by two small satellites (moons), Uhtua and Rantu, and is also orbited by a ring of debris which is inhabited by the Lekgolo. All together, there are 25 known satellites orbiting Te: 2 named, and 23 unnamed. The planet was actually transformed into a gaseous state as a byproduct of the Lekgolo eating through the Forerunner relics, most of which now form the ring of debris.
It has a temperature range of -20 C to 95 C and is a quite large, rocky planet. The government on Te is Socialism/Religious hegemony client. This planet is also known to have fabulously rich heavy metal deposits and rare metal mines.
The fate of Te after the Covenant-Human War is unknown, but it was likely undisturbed by the events of the war.
Trivia
- Te is likely a reference to Saturn, as they both have a large ring of debris, are both gas giants, and both have well over 20 satellites.
- "Te" means hand in Japanese.
