'''Capella''' is a [[Human colonies|human colony]] located in the [[Alpha Aurigae system]].{{Ref/Note|In the real world, "Capella" is an alternate name for the star Alpha Aurigae. Capella's nature as a colony rather than simply another name for the Alpha Aurigae system is never fully clarified in official material. This wiki assumes Capella to the a colony world in the system based on sources referring to Capella and the Alpha Aurigae system separately, and a mention of a product known as "Capellan vodka", the nature of which suggests a more specific point of origin than an entire star system.}}
