Aleya is the smaller and outer of the two natural satellites of Basis, the other being Mōna.
"Orbits every 22 days" (Agus, 2024)
"Our 6.55km minor ass moon still creates a tidal lock on our planet ❤️ 0.337m high/low tide difference Meaning we have at most a 1.664m tidal difference when both moons affect our tides Such a tiny lil moon Retrograde orbit like Phobos" (Agus, 2024)
"Since minor moon’s orbit is retrograde though, when the larger moon’s tidal effects would be at their most powerful, the minor moon’s effects would downgrade them They orbit at slightly different speeds so we can’t calculate their full effects atm" (Agus, 2024)
"It’s just a few hundred metres larger than Deimos so it would be TINY It would appear as a small dot on the sky" (Agus, 2024)
