New Galaxy - Thoughts

[TechnoBeast]

There are a few that would be cool to see, as they are from some of my favorite books, and part of a larger universe shared amongst the other books from the same author. While they are planets in the books, they would work for systems as well.

Eridani
Altair
Optheria

Hawking
Hubble
Chandrasakhar
DeGrasse
Jump Cannon
Payne-Gaposchkin
Jansky
Heisenburg

Oh......And Fitzbacon would be cool

I'm not the creative sort of fellow, but how about a group just named after major roads here on Earth.

[Elkhorn]

I envision a spiral galaxy with 12 arms. Each arm named after one of the principal Greek deities:

Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, and Hestia.

Mere systems and planets are beneath my ample skills to worry about naming, unless of course it was The Elkhorn System.

Perhaps systems named after famous sci-fi authors:

Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, Hugo Gernsback, Robert Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke, Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, William Gibson, and Orson Scott Card.

Not necessarily science fiction, but still notable:

JRR Tolkein, Kurt Vonneget, and Robert Jordan.

Planets could be named for book titles, or would that be going too far?

Port Sunflowers, maybe a starbase?

Port Sunflowers, maybe a starbase?

Got a dedication of sorts lined up that I think many will appreciate.
