placement in space: where are the off-world homeworlds?

Quote:I actually narrowed the latter down first. P.IST36 says it's "ten light-years from ours, toward the edge of the galaxy." In OTL, there are only five stars at that distance (at least according to Wikipedia), and only one that's on the side of our sky away from the center of the galaxy: e Eridani.
Lucky us - e Eridani has a NASA/JPL page with public-domain artwork. The "grunt work" of describing the system has already been done for us.
