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)}
