The kids will delight at a stopover on the dinosaur planet
Suarus in Chi Piscium, though be sure to always wear
at least one article of red clothing, and
remove shoes before entering a house of worship.
The carnivores get quite fanatical when a frenzy's up.

Fifty light years (ly) away is a planet
with reputedly the best surf in the galaxy
and the dakka is, well, unearthly.
Iota Piscium Delta is a splendid place for honeymooners;
two suns blaze at midnight
make lovers feel like lying down forever.
Just a hop-skip and a jump is the intriguing fourth
planet from the green sun Sadalmelik in Alpha Aquarii
where the only industry is the manufacture of
travel brochures.

Alpha Equuiei

Gamma Pegasi is cosmos to the blind star Algenib named to
honor the works of a 10,000 year old sage
whose latest incarnation has produced
his most stellar lyrics to date. The architecture of Algenib's
twelfth planet is also notable: the buildings dissolve
every twenty-five years.

Last year
Raging through the Nine Known Worlds of Orion
I knew a viciousness beyond ecstasy
I learned the local comets' languages
gained an insight into their traditions
and cosmology.
Altogether they were a palatial mind
spread across a solar system.
But Orion's booked out
till May.

There's a Zaurian trader doing the Sirius overnight shuttle leaving in half an hour and you can even take your dog - that's a joke!

Zeta Andromedae Alpha Major is literally a dump: mountains
of garbage block out the sky, the oceans
are sewers and not one tree remains.
Take plenty of oxygen if you insist on visiting.

Delta Equuiei on the other hand, abounds with
the most interesting trees. They eat flesh voraciously
and their animal husbandry is most efficient. And
they will eat you, too. Don't go
unless you want to quickly end up as fertilizer.

Mira in Omicron Ceti turned out, to everyone's surprise,
to be a binary system. Mira II is invisible as the first
explorers discovered, in dramatic fashion. There is not much to do
apart from inspect the shells of burnt out starships.

If you're not up to the rigors of deep space travel
then Mars at 1.2368 au might be for you.
The ruined cities beneath the surface
-- archaeologists say our ancestors came from here --
are fascinating if you like that kind of thing
and the asteroids can be breathtaking
during a solar storm when light
glows within travellers' souls.

Personally, I'd recommend the wormhole trek in the nineteen
molten worlds of Eta Aquarii where one can view the birth
of a solar system. Now that's part of an educational package.

Or Bright Archernar,
blazing sun in the system Alpha Eridani

Maybe Eta Draconis ....

Here's a good one: the Crux excursion is
a real mind-bender, a trip through a constellation where
some claim Australian spirits rest.
Whatever, Antipodean tourists return feeling blessed
and, on the voyage home, enjoy the antics of the space turtles
doing pirouettes on meteors.
