{{for|Rosharan system}}
Roshar is the second planet from its sun{{au ref|Roshar}}. It has several notable heavenly bodies, including three moons. The first and smallest moon is violet [['''Salas]]'''. The middle moon is [['''Nomon]]''', which is a bright, pale blue. The final moon is [['''Mishim]]''', which is smaller than Nomon and green. The Shin refer to the moons as the Three Sisters, and call each moon by its order, with Salas being the First Sister, Nomon the Second Sister and Mishim the Third Sister, while in [[Natanatan]], Nomon is considered to be male.{{book ref|sa3|67}} All three moons rise and fall in the same order every night and have highly unstable orbits, suggesting they were placed artificially.
 
Other notable features of Rosharan sky are [[Taln's Scar]] and [[Tear|Reya's Tear]]. The Scar is a great swath of red stars that stand out against the white ones.{{book ref|wok|2}} It is important in Rosharan astrology, particularly its position on one's seventh birthday.{{book ref|wok|33}} The [[Tear]] is a particularly bright star, named after a single tear shed by a woman named [[Reya]] from Rosharan mythology.{{book ref|wor|31 }}
