Human

Humans are native to the moons, but found all across the Sol System. Despite humans being the most plentiful humanoid of the Sol System, they wield very little institutional power. As a lunar people, they often fall under the political domain of planet superpowers. Humans sit in an interesting niche as the "majority minority" and live on the margins of society, oribital or otherwise.
Most humans are some shade of brown. The melanin in their skin helps give them some natural protection against light and solar radiation. Humans are frail, but they more than make up for this weakness with their inventiveness and resilience. When living in locations humans would not naturally thrive, they invent adaptations either for themselves or for the enviroment.

Human Migration

Most archeologists agree that Humans originated from the middle Solar system and spread outwards from there. Some of the oldest known evidence of human civilization can be found on the moons of Jupiter and Saturn. The Heller Cave Paintings on Rhea are not just the oldest evidence of humans, but also the oldest known figurative art by humanoids in the sol system.
There is a plethora of archeology that suggests that humanity is even older. Tools and statues are not uncommonly found in lunar regolith, and Luna has ancient rock circles that date before the Rhean cave paintings. None of this evidence is confidently attributable to humans, however, and though there is circumstantial evidence, the smoking gun proves to be elusive.
Humans have certainly existed on the moons, and several of them, long before the invention of the wheel, much less anything capable of spaceflight. The question of how remains unanswered. In some human traditions there are stories of distant ancestors walking on aurora to travel between moons, travelling on the backs of great beasts, or creating and using primitive rockets. These myths may perhaps be closer to the truth than more modern theories such as the rise and fall of a great advanced interplanetary empire, progenitor theories, or interstellar generation ships.
