	This thirteen-planet system contains a wide habitable zone thanks to its F-type main sequence star. Ellis is mostly known as the home of the UEE's most famous race, the Murray Cup. What began as a way to kill time during the terraforming process has become big business; fuelling the economy for the three terraformed planets -- [[StarCitizen:Green\|Green (Ellis III)]], [[StarCitizen:Kampos\|Kampos (Ellis IV)]], and [[StarCitizen:Noble\|Noble (Ellis V)]]. Ellis' [[StarCitizen:Ellis XI\|eleventh planet]] recently collided with its moon, leaving an asteroid belt in the former orbital path.
