Interstellar exploration in Fenspace
From FenWiki
The stars on this table either have a special significance for science fiction fandom in general (Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Altair, Barnard's Star, Zeta Reticuli), have some specific astronomical interest (Van Mannen's Star, Vega, Beta Hydri) or were pulled from the Catalog of Nearby Habitable Systems, meaning they were determined to (possibly!) have the conditions needed to support habitable planets. This is, essentially, a list of the candidate inhabitable systems within 100 light years of Earth.
