First given a name by Hozeau, who hypothesized it was a planet between Earth and Venus, for ten points, identify this supposed "moon of Venus" named after a goddess of Sais whose veil no mortal could lift.
It was first discovered by Cassini in 1672 but he did not publish his observations for fourteen years. Lambert's calculations of its orbital period and radius proved intrinsically flawed, while an Austrian named Father Hell declared that it could only be explained by an optical illusion. An 1887 inquiry by the Belgian Academy of Sciences disproved every sighting, however, and only an 1892 observation of a seventh magnitude object by Barnard remains unexplained.
