During its low orbit pass above the moon, the deep space probe detected evidence of settlements on the surface. Beyond this, little is known about the civilization living on Vedere. As has already been mentioned, it is unlikely that even the most educated of the Vederans is aware of their place in the cosmos, as it were, on account of the moon's extraordinary orbit. Because of Gardato's radiation it is not possible for an unprotected humanoid to directly observe the planet.
