Changes: Alpha III

Revision as of 23:55, 4 July 2015

Alpha III was the inhabited third planet of its star system. The planet was the home of an Earth colony. An important piece of Human rights legislation, the Statutes of Alpha III, was written on this planet by the Tribunal of Alpha III. (TOS: "Court Martial")

According to Star Trek Maps (pg. 22), the colony was established during the 22nd century as "Terra Four". By the 23rd century, the planet had a population of 175 million, it was a Federation member, and one of the seven members of the Federation security council. According to Star Trek: Star Charts ("United Federation of Planets I & III"), the Alpha system was a single star system in the Alpha Quadrant. Alpha was a G-class star with a magnitude of +5, the same brightness as Sol. Alpha III was a Federation member in 2378.

-:''Given that [[Samuel T. Cogley]] cited the Statutes as a legal precedent, it is more than likely that Alpha III is a [[Federation]] member world. We don't exactly know what [[star]] this planet orbits, as there are innumerable stars whose name contains "[[alpha]]," making it unlikely that this would orbit a star "Alpha" (as astronomical naming conventions suggest based on the "Alpha III" notation). It is possible this was a reference to a commonly mentioned system, such as [[Alpha Centauri]].  See [[Alpha system]] for more information.''
