Omicron Ceti III remastered

Omicron Ceti III in 2267 bombarded by Berthold rays

Omicron Ceti was an inhabited planetary system in the Alpha Quadrant. It had at least three planets, including Omicron Ceti III. After a failed attempt at colonizing this planet in the 2260s, the Federation would successfully attempt again and, by the mid-24th century, the colony was thriving. (TOS: "This Side of Paradise"; TNG: "Eye of the Beholder")

In 2367, the location of Omicron Ceti was labeled on a tactical situation monitor in Captain Benjamin Maxwell's ready room on the USS Phoenix. (TNG: "The Wounded", okudagram)

In 2366, in an alternate timeline, during the Federation-Klingon War, Omicron Ceti's position was labeled on a tactical situation monitor on the bridge and in the ready room of the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise", okudagram)

Appendices[]

Background information[]

This star system's quadrant of origin is inferred based on the position of neighboring locations – the Altair system (Altair III), Andor, Babel, Delta Vega, Eminiar, Janus VI, and Rigel – as seen in the star charts appearing in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".

In the real world, Omicron Ceti is also known as Mira. In the Star Trek universe, however, the name Mira is used as an alternative shorter name for the red giant star Mira Antlia of the Mira Antliae system visited by the Enterprise-D in "Conspiracy".

Apocrypha[]

A lost Federation colony on the fourth planet, Omicron Ceti IV, was seen in the comic book story Old Loyalties.
