Cue Ball is the name given by Anne-Marie in 2658[1] to a planet orbiting Beta Lyrae. It is described as being no bigger than Earth's Moon. It has a faint hydrogen atmosphere that is replaced by the hydrogen spiral surrounding Beta Lyrae as it passed over the planet. It is covered in ice and was uninhabitable.[2]
It was the site of a Kzin plot to try and capture stasis boxes from passing ships.[2]
