AD Leonis is a
young, red dwarf, flare star located only 15.9 light years from Earth. AD
Leonis, like other young stars, is known for violent flares that can sometimes
double the star's solar output.
Due to its closeness to Earth, the AD Leonis system was one of
the first system's explored by humans after the discovery of
interstellar travel. A temporary science base was
established orbiting AD Leonis B, with the mission of studying
the young system. Though, no permanent colonies were ever
built in the AD Leonis system.
Outside of illegal mining operations that occasionally visit the
system's outer Kuiper belt, the AD Leonis system is void of
human life.
