Changes: Orion III

Latest revision as of 13:50, 20 November 2023

Orion III was an inhabited third planet in the Pi³ Orionis system. This star was located in the Orion sector, a region of space in the Alpha Quadrant. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, production art; TNG: "Conspiracy", display graphic; VOY: "Good Shepherd")

As part of a vision quest, Tom Paris told Chakotay that word had just come in from Vegas, Mars, and Orion III that the odds were 33:1 that Kid Chaos would outpoint him and 11:1 that he'd be k.o.ed by the fifth round. (TNG: "Conspiracy", display graphic; VOY: "The Fight"; DIS: "Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad"; PIC: "Maps and Legends")
