Arrakis
Desert world and sole source of the spice melange. Water is life here, and the great sandworms rule the deep desert that makes the Imperium run.
Host: Canopus
Canopus
Second-brightest star in the sky after Sirius, and the beacon of Carina. From southern latitudes it dominates the Milky Way's bright Carina stretch.
Gaia has no usable parallax for this star (common for bright multiples). Distance uses the Hipparcos parallax instead.
