History[edit]

In 2448, humanity colonized the Brunel star system, establishing New Llanelli as a UEG colony. The colony was burnt to rubble during the Human-Covenant War when the Covenant glassed New Llanelli in the year 2546.[2]

Trivia[edit]

It was likely named in honor of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, a British engineer who revolutionized public transportation, modern engineering, and the architect for the Great Western Railway.
