Notes
- The multitude of sources all handle the systems and planets in different ways, so the above structure is what SFC-canon uses. "Antares" will generally refer to the binary star system, with individual systems named with their numerals. A planet identified as "Antares x" (ex: Antares IV), will default to the Alpha Antares system for the first four planets and the Beta Antares for the final 5 planets.
