Changes: Tantalus V

Revision as of 01:05, 22 March 2015

Tantalus V was the inhabited ringed fifth planet of its star system. In 2266, this was the home of a Federation rehabiliation colony.

That same year, the USS Enterprise delivered supplies, including infra-sensory drugs, to this planet. (TOS: "Dagger of the Mind")

According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, Tantalus V was "named for the Greek mythic figure who stole ambrosia from the tables of the gods, feeding it to mortals." ^{(citation needed • edit)}

When he sought [[water]], the river lowered; when he tried for [[food]], the tree bent away from him.  He was always hungry and thirsty, but forever denied nourishment.  Words such as 'tantalize' come from his name.  It is possible that this world, a place of punishment, is also named for this legendary character.''
