Notes
- This is the "true" Rigel, that represents the Federation's most-rimward position, deep in the Beta Quadrant. Beta Rigel is the far more common system, and is located almost into the "thumb" between the Romulan and Klingon empires.
- The multiple star system is made up of 4 stars, with three subordinate star systems. Rigel B and Rigel C orbit each other, with the Rigel BC system orbiting with Rigel D. Rigel A orbits with Rigel BCD. Rigel A has a star system, as do Rigel BCC and Rigel D.
