Kaliipperin

Kaliipperin is a fictional celestial body featured in the science fiction novel "The Starless Sea" by Erin Morgenstern. Within the narrative, it is described as a moon that orbits a planet within a distant star system. Its defining characteristic is its unusual luminosity, which is said to ebb and flow with a peculiar rhythm. This luminescence is not a product of reflected sunlight, but rather an intrinsic property of the moon itself, the origin of which is left ambiguous within the story.

The moon's light is often depicted as casting an ethereal glow, influencing the atmosphere and environment of the planet it orbits. It plays a significant role in the lore and mythology of the various cultures that inhabit this fictional world, often associated with mystery, magic, and the passage of time. Its fluctuating light is sometimes interpreted as a sign or omen, contributing to the sense of wonder and enchantment that permeates "The Starless Sea." The exact scientific or fantastical explanation for Kaliipperin's light remains a subject of speculation within the book's context.
