Pherkad I
TundraNo survey data available. This world remains unexplored.
The twin sunsets over Pherkad I's rust-colored highlands were worth every parsec of the detour—those two stars bleeding orange and violet across the horizon in a way that made even my jaded eye linger. I've catalogued seventeen planets with binary star systems, but there's something about the chromatic interplay here that defies the usual atmospheric calculations; the locals claim the effect changes with the seasons, and I'm inclined to believe them. Noted for further study on the next pass.
