Template:For Template:System The Sol system (also known as Solar System) is the birthplace of StarCitizen:Humanity and capital of the Empire. The StarCitizen:Imperator, Senate and many other major StarCitizen:UEE institutions are based on Earth (Sol III). Among the many historical milestones that the system can lay claim to is the first ever terraformed planet, Mars (Sol IV).
Planets
Mercury : Sol I
Script error: No such module "main".
Due to an orbital eccentricity, this small planet experiences the greatest temperature variations of any planet in the system.

This gas giant is the largest planet in the Sol System.
Saturn : Sol VI
Script error: No such module "main".
A gas giant best known for its set of planetary rings.

This ice giant has an unusual lopsided magnetic field due to a dramatic tilt of its axis that places its north and south poles where most other planets have their equator.
Neptune : Sol VIII
Script error: No such module "main".
An ice giant whose differential rotation contributes to it having the strongest winds in the Sol System.
Pluto : Sol IX (Dwarf Planet)
Script error: No such module "main".
This dwarf planet was the first major StarCitizen:Kuiper Belt object to ever be discovered and is primarily made of ice and rock.
Asteroid belts
Herschel Belt
Script error: No such module "main".
Also known simply as 'The Asteroid Belt', the Hershel Belt is located between StarCitizen:Mars and StarCitizen:Jupiter and contains objects such as Dwarf Planet StarCitizen:Ceres.
Kuiper Belt
Script error: No such module "main".
The StarCitizen:Kuiper Belt lies beyond StarCitizen:Neptune's orbit and contains objects such as StarCitizen:Pluto.
Planetary rings
Jovian Rings
Script error: No such module "main".
A planetary asteroid belt orbiting Jupiter.
Rings of Neptune
Script error: No such module "main".
A planetary asteroid belt orbiting Neptune.

Space stations
INS Dunleavy
Script error: No such module "main".
Orbiting between StarCitizen:Saturn and StarCitizen:Uranus next to the StarCitizen:Sol - Davien jump point, this orbital Naval base acts as the main operational center for the main Sol fleet.
TDD Kesner
Script error: No such module "main".
Orbiting outside the StarCitizen:Kuiper Belt, next to the StarCitizen:Sol - Croshaw jump point, StarCitizen:TDD Kesner is a major shipping hub where most cargo moving to StarCitizen:Earth is first processed - to help alleviate congestion on the Empire's capital world.
IMS Bolliver
Script error: No such module "main".
Though it is no longer in active service since the Marine forces stationed here were reassigned to StarCitizen:Mars, the base remains strictly off limits.
Known jump points
Script error: No such module "Jump points".
Trivia
- CIG sometimes refers to other systems as "solar systems", which occasionaly sparks heated debates among players. The use of "solar systems" to mean planetary systems other than ours, around other stars, appears in popular media articles, scientific websites, published scientific papers and scientific conferences.<ref>"[...] many solar systems have more than one star [...]."
