'''Beta Centauri''' is a double star in the constellation [[Wikipedia:Centaurus|Centaurus]], that forms one of the points in the [[Wikipedia:Crux|Southern Cross]] constellation. Located 525 light years from [[Sol System|Sol]], it is the furthest known [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]-colonized system.  The system is known for exports and a good vintage of [[champagne]]. It is unknown what other roles this colony played during it's existence, or if it was even a battleground, or if the colony was at all glassed.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', page 83</ref>

A reference to a [[list of food and drinks|champagne]] of a "Beta Centauri vintage" was made in the original edition of ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', implying the system had been colonized by humanity.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach (2001)''', ''page 83''</ref> "Beta Centauri" was [[List of rectified inconsistencies in the Halo series|changed]] to "[[Procyon]]" in the 2010 edition of the novel.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach (2010)''', ''page 104''</ref> This is likely due to the fact the system is situated well beyond the known sphere of influence of humanity and thus unlikely to house a colony.
