List of Humanx Commonwealth planets
This is a list of the fictional planets in the Humanx Commonwealth series of novels by Alan Dean Foster.
Alaspin
Alaspin has large jungles surrounded by equally large savannas and river plains; its only notable celestial feature is two moons.
Currently the planet has no sentient race; the native race died out, possibly by racial suicide, over 75,000 years ago leaving behind hundreds of ancient, abandoned cities that have proved a source of fascination to modern xeno-archaeologists.
A variety of lifeforms currently live on Alaspin, most notably the Alaspinian minidrag.
Annubis
Annubis is most notable for the fictional Hyperion forests from which the fictional drug bloodhype is manufactured. In an attempt to eradicate the highly addictive and deadly drug, the trees were burned in 545 A.A. and are thought to be completely destroyed.
The planet first appeared in the novel Bloodhype.
Blasusarr
Blasusarr is the homeworld of the AAnn race and is often called the Imperial Home World. Climate is dry and hot, largely desert, the preferred atmospheric conditions of the AAnn. Beyond this, little is known about Blasusarr other than the fact that it is very well-protected by a detection and space defense network. Its capital city, also the capital of the AAnn Empire, is Krrassin.

STI, along with Prodrive of the UK specialized in the preparation of a variety of vehicles for the Subaru World Rally Team which competed in the World Rally Championship (WRC). It was founded in 1988 by Fuji Heavy Industries, the parent company of Subaru, to promote the company's performance-oriented identity.
STI's signature color is "Cherry Blossom Red" (or "Rubine Red" as it is known in Australia.) It is seen as a masculine colour in Japanese culture.
STI special limited models
While Subaru offers many models with a trim level labeled "STI" or "Tuned by STI," there have been several special limited edition STI models.
STI was also known for its exceptional quality in producing cars designed for rally racing. Subaru discontinued its participation in the WRC in 2008.
