Home System

"The Home System," or simply "Home System," is the most common colloquial term for Earth's solar system. While it is officially called the "Sol" system, and is referred to as such on star charts, in legal documentation, and among the scientific community, "Home System" has become the most commonly used term among the general public, particularly among residents of the worlds in said system.

The Home System consists of eight planets and two asteroid belts. Earth remains the most heavily populated world in the system by a significant margin, followed by Mars. While none of the other worlds in the system have a population anywhere near as high as Earth or Mars, every planet in the system has some form of permanent human habitation, and many lesser bodies in the Main and Kuiper belts host permanent colonies as well.
