	*I noticed that some of the same planets appear in multiple locations. Well actually just one. The Antares BG Planet. It appears in multiple missions in multiple locations but most missions do not have planets at all. The Ribos BG Planet was used only once and the Betelgeuse BG Planet appears only once so both of them can be considered at least partially canon. So what about the other one? --[[User:FlamingCobra\|FlamingCobra]] 21:43, 8 July 2011 (UTC)		*I noticed that some of the same planets appear in multiple locations. Well actually just one.

	***Naming system corresponds to how many planets away from the star it is (so Earth would be Sol III, Mars = Sol IV, etc.). Since we don't know which planet is which, we'll just have to settle on something vague (and since there's only one planet bitmap we see in Antares and Betelgeuse, a generic "planet" name should suffice). Also, on the subject of the Ancient cutscenes, we really have no clue which system they are in. We can mention those planets but not as part of any particular system. (about the teal planetoid, looks like a moon of some kind, planets are usually not that close together) - [[User:Snail\|Snail]] 02:17, 14 June 2011 (UTC)		***Naming system corresponds to how many planets away from the star it is (so Earth would be Sol III, Mars = Sol IV, etc.).
