In the real world, Gamma Velorum, also known as Regor, is a quadruple star system in the constellation Vela. It is located 1,096 light years from Earth, a distance which the Orville's quantum drive would cross in just short of 110 hours, over four and a half days.
The name Regor ("Roger" spelled in reverse) was invented as a practical joke by the Apollo 1 astronaut Gus Grissom for his fellow astronaut Roger Chaffee.
