The system is the most frequently visited location in the ''Metroid'' series. The planets [[Zebes]], [[Twin Tabula]], [[Oormine II]], [[Bilium]], and [[Tallon IV]] are part of the solar system. A [[Astronomical Holographic Projector|holographic image]] of this solar system can be seen in ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'' in the [[Observatory]], located in [[Phendrana Drifts]]. The system and its star were first mentioned by name in the [[Metroid (manga)|Metroid Manga]]. | '''FS-176'''<ref>{{cite manga|The second planet from the sun FS-176, [[Zebes]]|Samus Aran|1|2|2|http://metroid.retropixel.net/gallery.php?gallery_id=mga_mv1ch2&image_id=2}}</ref> is the star of the FS-176 solar system.

The planet Bilium orbits closest to the star. Between Bilium and the next closest planet (Oormine II) lies an asteroid field, which contains fairly large segments, suggesting that either the system is relatively young and is still in the process of forming its planets, or that a planet has been destroyed and its remnants make up the belt. | The planet Bilium orbits closest to the star.
