The Draconis Subcluster is a subcluster of star systems located entirely within the Local Cluster.

It is situated rimward of the Solar Subcluster, between the Apollo Subcluster spinward, and the Amazonia Cluster trailward.

The subcluster includes no traditional sovereign states, but is host to a great number of orbital districts and space stations.

The Draconis Subcluster is principally comprised of three primary star systems: Delta Draconis, Sigma Draconis, and Theta Draconis.

Etymology

Genitive of Draco used when naming stars, borrowed from Latin Dracō, itself a borrowing from Ancient Greek Δρᾰ́κων (Drákōn, “dragon, sharp sighted”). Doublet of dracone, dragon and dragoon.
