Galaxiki - A fictional galaxy anyone can edit

Galaxiki is a collaborative, detailed, fictional galaxy -- a wiki for creating fantasy solar-systems in a shared galaxy.

The system 'Fermi (SCG867)' comprises the star 'Fermi' and the retinue of celestial objects gravitationally bound to it: 5 planets and their 355 moons, as well as asteroids, meteoroids, planetoids, comets, and interplanetary dust.
The principal component of this star system is the star 'Fermi', a red dwarf class star that contains about 99.14% of the system's known mass and dominates it gravitationally. Fermi is located more than 2220 lightyears from the center of the galaxy.
