This category contains all articles on [[Sarna BattleTechWiki]] about (star) systems that have been mentioned in the [[BattleTech]] universe. System articles will typically also cover available information on the individual components of the system, e.g. stars, planets, moons, asteroids, etc.; their articles will usually be redirects to the system article.
 
 
In BattleTech, the term "star system" (or simply "system") makes no distinction between [[w:star system|star systems]] and [[w:planetary sytem|planetary systems]], covering both of them. For the purposes of Sarna BTW and in accordance with the BattleTech universe, "system" generally denotes a region of space in proximity to a specific star or star system plus any orbiting non-stellar bodies or objects that is treated as a single stellar destination in astronavigational terms. Traveling from one system to another usually requires a [[Kearny-Fuchida jump drive]], whereas intra-system travel is typically done with thrust engines and does not require a jump-capable vessel. A system is accordingly represented as a single point on star maps.
 
 
Note that a system as a whole can have a name different from the name of any one body (sun, planet, moon, asteroid, etc.) within the system. At the same time, it was established in BattleTech [[canon]] that systems are often, but not always, named after the primary inhabited body therein.
