Moon

The Moon is giant rocky white sphere that orbits the world of One Piece. It was often seen during night scenes. It was also labeled Fairy Vearth by Enel. It appears throughout the series, but the first time the moon was seen was Chapter 28 when Kuro use it as a signal to carry out his three years plan. The moon first appeared to look red/orange fancy cartoonish crescent, after that the moon begins to be hard sketched.

On the moon however was burran and rocky with no lifeforms but Space Pirates mined here and the Spaceys tried to fight them. There is an ancient city on the moon with many other Spaceys and the technology there was high-advance. However there is a painting on the wall showing the Skypieans, Spaceys and Shandorans. How the civilization got to the moon remains a mystery.

Trivia

 * Luffy and his group are in the Northern Hemisphere of their world according to the phases of the moon.
 * You can use the moons progression of time as a indication for the Straw Hats journey. However, this makes it from the Kuro's attack on Merry in the Kuro arc to Luffy's arrival on Amazon Lily just 21 days. Considering the progression of time has often been argued in One Piece, this seems hard to accept considering at least two weeks passed between the events of Water 7 and the Red Line. The moon seen when Luffy is flying through the air can explained by one of two methods:
 * The Waning Cresent seen in Chapter 514 is actaully a southern hemisphere Waxing moon (in the southern hemisphere, phases of the moon are reversed).
 * The moon was on its second cycle, making it 42 days a much closer match to the minium estimated canon storyline timespan.
