The Magellan Subcluster is a subcluster of star systems located entirely within the Calypso Deeps.
It is situated coreward-by-spinward of the Golden Horn and rimward of the Encruzilhada Subcluster and Pillars of Hercules.
The Magellan Subcluster is comprised of ten star systems: Barbosa, Cartagena, Carvalho, Elcano, Gonzalo, Magellan, Mendoza, Quesada, Salle, and Serrado.
Etymology
The Magellan Subcluster is named after the Magellan-Elcano Expedition, a 16th century Spanish expedition which achieved the first circumnavigation of Earth. With the exception of Gonzalo, the names of the stars of this subsector are derived from the nine foremost captains of the voyage, from Ferdinand Magellan to Juan Sebastian Elcano.
Astrography
The Magellan Subcluster has an abundance of unstable translight strings, especially between Mendoza and Elcano.
