The Vedere system is located about 300 lightyears from Romulus and is unique in that the only sentient life in the system exists on the moon, whose orbit follows a path similar to that of the Uranian ring system in the Terran system. | ||

Gardato's ring system consists of densely-populated rocky debris, along with trace amounts of ice crystals, causing its edges to shimmer. The planet's EM field, combined with radio emissions coming from its core, have made it difficult for life to evolve on Vedere. Indeed, were it not for the moon's bizarre polar orbit, life would not have evolved there at all. | ||
