The '''Cygnus System''' is a [[Human]]-controlled system in the [[Outer Colonies]] that has not been affected by the [[Insurrection]]. <ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''</ref> | |||
Within its system are two Human colonized worlds. One of which is [[New Jerusalem]], the possible birthplace of [[Jilan al-Cygni]]. <ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', page 69</ref> | |||
Cygnus may be part of the [http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cygnus_(constellation) Cygnus] constellation. | |||
In real-world astronomy, there are only four stars within the Cygnus constellation within UNSC territory, Epsilon Cygni, which is 72.1 lightyears from Earth, and the three star system 16 Cygni which is 70.5 lightyears from Earth. It is not known which of two is inhabited, or indeed whether both are. There is also the star Gienah, which is 82 lightyears away.<ref>''http://www.astronomytoday.com/astronomy/cygnus.html''</ref> | |||
