Ever wondered where the Narn Homeworld is????

might be getting it mixed up with the SST stuff here but I think alpha centauri was an earth outpost of some sort I think so might be able to scratch that one from the candidates?

The sooner we find it the sooner we can start importing breen!!! (you know, the episode in season 3 or 4 where G'Kar prepares a meal for himself and warleader G'Sten (I think it was G'Sten, before he left for that ill fated mission) and G'sten is remarking on how he got Breen all the way from homeworld and how did he do it. This was while Narn was still under the heel of the centauri.) Until That time we will just have to make do with swedish meatballs :)
 
actualy I thought Proxima was the base, not Alpha Centauri. but ither way I think it still does the same thing.

So I sed it to find any star about 12 LY from good ol' Epsilon Eridani.

Here is the list of candidates:

Luyten Palomar would be in the right spot :lol:

but it's an M class star, not really well suited to life developing. 82 Eridani, being a G class star, would be a better candidate.
 
I said it was in thw right spot EP, not that it was suitable :lol:

Besides, until we run into that Centauri mission, and then they try to get Australia off us, we'll never know!

Not so EP, I'm pretty sure somewhere in my vast collection of B5 stuff I read/watched/heard that the Centauri originally claimed to have invented Jump gates ansd tried to sell the technology to Earth for the asking price of Australia.

Can't wuite remember where though. :x

Has to have been something you read as I've watched the show all the way through numerous times and never saw it on the show. That still leaves over a dozen novels and over a dozen comics for it to have been mentioned.

Why by the great maker would such a high-cultured society ask for Australia of all places! :shock: :P

Imagine the Centauri settling there, wearing shorts, vests, all being called Bruce Mollari and Sheila Tyree! Drinking "Bravari XXXX" at barbies and talking about the "whingeing pommy narns" :lol:

Well, according to the Babylon Project jump route map (from which all subsequent B5 jump route maps are descended (but changes have been made...))

82 Eridani is the Narn world of Kotok
Ross 248 is the Vega Colony of the EA
Groombridge 34 is likely to be the Markab homeworld (listed as "Groombridge")

So, the Narn Homeworld is likely in the approximate direction of 82 Eridani.

This gives the lead candiate as...
