While there is in fact no actual star with the designation Sigma Octanus, there is one named Sigma Octantis, a slight spelling change, located 270 lightyears from [[Sol]], which is the most southern of all visible stars in the sky. This would make it the furthest known UNSC colony, significantly further than [[Epsilon Indi]], or even [[23 Librae]]. | |||
