History
- In (approximately) 27,700 BCE: The Fourth Orion Empire hastily abandons a terraforming project on Rigel VIII (Tavar).[1]
- The planet has domed cities and huge statues that have fallen into ruins after these Orions (inexplicably) gained god-like powers and destroyed themselves. Spacers' tales tell of the world's ghost cities, its mile-high statues, and of angry "shells" of life-force that kill anyone who step foot on the surface. Certainly, visitors to the planet have a greater tendency to disappear. (Worlds, p. 141)

Notes
- The Hakel radiation belt emitted by Beta Rigel A provides a "green zone" environment for all the planets—including those in orbit of Beta Rigel BC—with the exception of Rigel I and the asteroid belt situated in the orbit just beyond it.
