Huh, funny. I just recently watched this serial too.

I just checked with the first scene, and Vega Nexos says:
 * "We people of the planet Vega are a practical race of mining engineers."

No sign of a species name, and the fact that he has to go out of his way to say "we people of the planet Vega" rather than "we [species name]" indicates that one will not be given.

So "Vegan" is most definitely conjecture, unless Legacy provides us with a source for the name. I say keep the name, but put.

And I think we should treat Vega and Vega Nexos as separate planets. They're obviously meant to be the same, but the writer made a mistake and there's no real connection in-narrative.
