Astra

You may be looking for princess of the same name.

Astra was a planet, whose native inhabitants were known as the Astrans. In the 21st century, it was the core of the Astran Space Empire, the closest space power to the solar system; there were frequent skirmish at the borders of the solar system between human space forces and Astran space fleets, ultimately resulting in a Space War. By the 25th century, however, the planet was home to an Earth colony.
