The star system Serpentis does not exist in real life. It appears to be a fictional star system, possibly from a science fiction universe. There is no record of a star or star system by this name in any astronomical database or star catalog.
 
However, there is a constellation named Serpens, which is Latin for "the serpent". Serpens is unique among the modern constellations in being split into two non-contiguous parts, Serpens Caput (Serpent's Head) to the west and Serpens Cauda (Serpent's Tail) to the east. Between these two halves lies the constellation of Ophiuchus, the "Serpent-Bearer".
 
In terms of real star systems within the Serpens constellation, one of the most notable is the Gliese 436 system, which contains one of the first Neptune-sized extrasolar planets to be discovered, Gliese 436 b.
 
Another notable star in the Serpens constellation is Eta Serpentis, a binary star system approximately 61 light-years away from Earth. The primary star, Eta Serpentis A, is a yellow-white F-type main-sequence star, while its companion, Eta Serpentis B, is a red dwarf.
