Hancock System

The Hancock System was a star system in the vicinity of the Manticore System.
== Star Geography ==
Located to the northeast of Manticore and the southwest of the Seaford Nine System, the system's primary star was an M5 red dwarf with an eleven light-minute hyper limit. The system held an asteroid belt. ()
== History ==
In 1905 PD, a large Royal Manticoran Navy support base, Hancock Station, was completed in the system, providing a key point in the Manticoran Alliance's defense line against the People's Republic of Haven. The presence of the base made the system a target of Operation Perseus, the Havenite prelude to the First Havenite-Manticoran War. 
Later that year, a People's Navy task force led by Admiral Yuri Rollins attacked the system in the First Battle of Hancock. ()
In 1913 PD, a second Havenite attack on the system occurred in the Second Battle of Hancock. Task Force 12.3, a Havenite task force led by Rear Admiral Jane Kellet, attacked the system, but was repelled with the assistance of new generation LACs and HMS Minotaur, the first Manticoran LAC carrier.
