JB-437 system

JB-437 is an uninhabited star system in the Menthar Corridor.

Approximately 3 light years from Deep Space 10, the core of the system is a relatively new main sequence star. The planetary system is still forming, and at the moment, there are only two bodies large enough to be classified as planets. The star system is filled with debris that requires careful astrogation, as the star system is still in its primary phase of accretion. This debris does have the potential for serving as an easy source of matter for material replication.

Planetary Bodies

JB-437 1: A large class D rocky planet, it is made up of relatively common materials and is, thus far, unremarkable.

JB-437 2: A class J planet, the smallest of the gas giants, it is made up primarily of hydrogen and helium. It is relatively dense for a gas giant, and as such, has an unusually high amount of gravity.

Noteable Events

In 2390, the USS Mercury traveled to this star system to investigate a distress call. The distress call was sent by the Constitution class USS Saratoga, NCC-1702, pictured below, in the midst of a strange gravitational and temporal anomaly.
