The B class supergiant 13 Mu Sagittarii, part of the Sagittarius constellation and also known as Polis, has the distinction of being one of the furthest stars visible from Earth with the naked eye. Situated just below the galactic plane, it is visible from both hemispheres of Earth in certain times of the year.

21st century astronomers were wildly conflicted about the specific distance of the star Mu Sagittarii from Earth, with suggested distances ranging from less than 5,000 light years to more than 36,000. By the 32nd century, the furthest extreme had been confirmed, and in 3303, the star received its first human visitor. Later that year, 13 Mu Sagittarii was a waypoint on the popular Sagittarius-Carina expedition and attracted a fair amount of visitation and attention.

13 Mu Sagittarii hurtles through the void with a total of five satellites in tow – three planets and two moons.

Body 1 is a Sudarsky Class V gas giant, banded in off-white and dark grey, surrounded by two metal rich rings.

Its single moon is riddled with canyons, mesas and other interesting geological features, making for a fascinating body to land on and photograph.

Body 2 is also a Class V gas giant, banded in cream, pea-green, and terracotta.

Its moon is a very small body, irregular in shape.

Body 3 is a ringed, landable metal-rich body, with metallic magma volcanism and anemones to keep a curious commander busy for a little while.

All planets and moons are close enough to Mu Sagittarii that it looms large, no matter where one is in system. All in all, it is a superb example of a B Class Supergiant with ample opportunity for photography and exploration.
