The nearest star system to Malcor III was the Garth system, which was less than a light year away.
The planet made First Contact with the Federation prematurely when William T. Riker, on a mission to investigate the species, was revealed as an alien. Avel Durken was the planet's chancellor at this time. (TNG: "First Contact")
