AT: "xx" Altair III was the third planet of the Altair system.
In the early 2360s, when the USS Hood visited this system, Lieutenant Commander William T. Riker refused to let Captain Robert DeSoto transport to the surface of Altair III with an away team because he deemed the action as too dangerous. By preventing his captain from beaming down, Riker disobeyed a direct order and risked a general court martial. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint", "The Pegasus")
In 2367, the planet appeared on a chart in Captain Benjamin Maxwell's ready room on the USS Phoenix. (TNG: "The Wounded")
In an alternate 2366, Altair III was marked on a tactical situation monitor showing the fleet deployments in the Federation-Klingon War. (TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise" display graphic)
