(Greek God) NYX AKA Goddess Of The Night
12-17-2009, 10:19 PM
NYX: Goddess of the Night and daughter of CHAOS.
Being a real night person, she loves the dark. Which explains why she is the consort of EREBUS the God of Darkness â or at least liked him enough for a fling which resulted in AETHER, HEMERA and the FATES.
Every evening she coaxes him out to spread his gloomy darkness, which obscures the shining AETHER and lets the stars come out to play. It's up to daughter HEMERA to waft away the darkness every morning to let the sun shine.
Like many other Greek deities, NYX has also donated her name to a celestial object. Previously known as S/2005 P1, this gloomy moon circles the remote planetoid Pluto in a suitably shadowy and mysterious manner.
Strangely, astronomers have decided to spell the name 'Nix' instead of 'Nyx'. We imagine there must be a Disney character with a similar nixname waiting in the wings.
We have no more light to shed on the darkness at present.
