'''Chu'ot''' was a planet that the [[Jackal]] homeworld orbited as a satellite.


It lies within the inner region of the system's massive asteroid belt. The worlds surface was characterized by a single large ocean, sparse volcanic activity and an almost total lack of glacification. About one third of the Kig-yar population in the [[Y'Deio]] system called the satellite, [[Eayn]], their home. The remaining Jackals have chosen to set up colonies within the asteroid belt since their discovery by the [[Covenant]].
'''Chu'ot''' is a large Neptune-sized planet orbiting the star [[Y'Deio]] in Covenant space. The [[Eayn|Kig-Yar homeworld]] orbits the planet.
