- Deneb 4
Deneb 4 (Also written "Deneb IV") is a fictional outpost/colony in the "
Babylon 5 "science fiction television series . It is the fourth planet out from the starDeneb , which is located 1600 Light Years from Earth.It has been mentioned only sporadically in the course of the series, and hence not much information about it is available:
* In "Parliament of Dreams," Catharine Sakai mentions traveling through the Deneb system recently.
* In "Racing Mars," it is commented that Deneb IV is a large settlement and "The Largest Colony Market in the area" [http://chronology.org/noframes/b-five/planets.html]
cientific Concerns
Deneb is an amazingly bright star, and if a habitable planet did in fact orbit it, it would need to do so at a distance of about 2.5 AUs, midway between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter in our own solar system. Any closer and liquid water would not be able to exist. [http://www.stellar-database.com/Scripts/search_star.exe?ID=221400]
