SUMMARY
HD 191612 is the only known system with a F-class supergiant in a planetary orbit.HD 191612 is the only known system with a F-class supergiant in a planetary orbit.
DESCRIPTION

Located in the western portion of the Inner Orion Spur, HD 191612 appears to be an ordinary O-class star from the galaxy map. However, visitors to this system will be amazed to find a "unicorn" in the system map: a 45 solar radii F-class supergiant in a planetary orbit. It is nearly 3 times the radius of the parent star.

HD 191612 System Map

As the F-class supergiant is a planet of the O-class star, it is essentially "chained" to it.

Visitors will also find Prasium Bioluminescent Anemone on landable bodies in the system.

However, visitors to this system will be amazed to find a "unicorn" here: a 45 solar radii F-class supergiant is in a planetary orbit. As of 3308/10/17, this is the only known case where an F-class supergiant is in such an orbit. It is nearly 3 times the radius of its parent star, and it's also more luminous.
