only if it had life. the moon doesn't have life, so it wouldn't have
an aura. jupiter might have life (clearly not life as we know it), so
jupiter might have an aura. it's an open question as to whether
jupiter's mana field is compatible with humans; i see three
possibilities:
(a) field is incompatible, mage cannot function as a mage, same as in
space
(b) field is incompatible, mage is overwhelmed or killed upon entry to
the mana field
(c) compatible, mage can use magic to some degree (lesser, equal, or
greater).

interesting idea.

quite!
it's also possible that there is a form of magic that can draw on the
_solar_ field somehow, and would therefore work anywhere in the solar
system. if there is, it's possible the guys on Z-O would know about
it because magic otherwise doesn't work in orbit. of course, _they_
aren't telling. remember, in principle _anything_ is possible
magically; the limitations are psychological. :)
