Something that was originally brought up by Dartz and really needs to get onto the wiki. I've fleshed it out a bit more.

20**, a group of Superfen took the long journey out to LHS 2520 and discovered
three bodies of interest around the star.
Vext
A searing hot, super-jupiter gas
giant (Class S in Starfleet terms), this gas supergiant's year lasts a mere two
weeks.
Krypton
Belt
A
dense asteroid belt right smack-dab in the middle of the goldilocks zone. Prior
to leaving, the Superfen expedition left behind a small memorial plaque on a
large asteroid they dubbed Argo.
Cythonna
A
frozen, lifeless rock that is just barely inside Rao's outer habitation zone. One
member of the original expedition wanted to call it Ma'aleca'andra, as it was "a
Mars with more ice."
