: Calculations based on information from the novels has put UNSC Slipspace
: speeds as fast as 2.1 light years per day. Covenant Slipspace speeds have
: been calculated to about 8 light years per day. If they didn't want these
: calculations to be made, they shouldn't have seeded the novels with
: calculable info.

I agree, and I also think that using modern-day astronomical terms for settled systems doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It just seems to me that, when settlers look up at their sun, they'll want to call it something other than Groombridge-1830.
