Patek Coen

Patek Coen (2786 - 2867) was a navjumper most notable for his discovery of the [Kellog system](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/Vy28ZQeYZv-kellog-system) in 2811. Born on [Kampos (Ellis IV)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RAXxrxr7M5-kampos-ellis-iv), Coen began his career as a pilot for a private ferry service from Kampos to neighboring planets [Green (Ellis III)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RWoNrNeLKP-green-ellis-iii) and [Noble (Ellis V)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/V8W545NrKo-noble-ellis-v). He became interested in navjumping after reading a biography on [Antoine Lebec](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/0ODddzO7Dq-antoine-lebec), and took on private training courses in navigation and detection in his spare time. It was his goal to eventually live in a system he discovered himself. After nearly a decade of searching, Coen found a jump point to Kellog, but was disappointed when the existence of the [Orm](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RzPoqZXqZz-orm) civilization on [Kellog II](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/bmGJeMv2oK-xis-kellog-ii) came to light and the system was placed under the [Fair Chance Act (FCA)](https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RXlXmnaYGP-fair-chance-act), meaning that he could not reside there. He retired from navjumping in 2839 when his autobiography *A Refuted Dream* became an unexpected bestseller.
