Ellis VIII

Ellis VIII is a planet in the [Ellis system](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RxnBEBWBjQ-ellis-system), [United Empire of Earth (UEE)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/VyvyKxy4v6-united-empire-of-earth). Cold and desolate, the rolling plains of Ellis VIII are coated in thick layers of nitrogen and water ice supplied by a system of active cryovolcanoes. Off-gassing from this ice has produced a thin atmosphere. Many tourists in the system seek out drinking water collected from Ellis VIII, citing its unique mineral content as evidence of superior flavor.
