Anaon
Anaon is the only planet in the Gamma Ceti system. The planet is inhabited by a large colony of humans, who occupy the southern-most end of the plant due to the lack of atmosphere anywhere but the poles.

Geology
The surface of Anaon is a frozen and barren wasteland, save some fertile areas at the poles. Main metals and minerals include titanium, gold, platinum, iron, copper and uranium. Many craters pocket the surface of the planet due to common meteor showers and space junk. The 'snow' is not actually frozen water, but rather an extremely cold nitrogen solution that has become so unstable that the atoms within have just fallen apart, therefore giving it a slushy and wet texture.

Atmosphere
The atmosphere is EXTREMELY thin, consisting of Oxygen, Nitrogen, Argon and Ozone, as well as other gases that are able to support life. Due to the thin nature of the atmosphere, colonists live in domes filled with air to prevent the planet from becoming completely inhospitable.

Human/Covenant War
Anaon was the site of a major battle between UNSC and the Covenant in 2549. Human forces fought for 2 years to reclaim the planet from the Covenant, and eventually it came to a Minor Covenant Defeat after the UNSC Shocktroop Corps 'The Immortals'captured and destroyed a vital Covenant Supply line. It was considered minor due to the loss on tens of thousands of human lives.
