Avalon Sector

The Avalon Sector is a largely unexplored region on the border of the Delta Quadrant. Its primary research station is Deep Space 285.

Following the resignation of Rear Admiral Michael Samuelson (Retired) after the dubious court-martial of Capt. Tyr Waltas, Starfleet's assigned Rear Admiral Richard Hart as Avalon's Interim Commander.

Discovered Systems and Phenomenae

Genura

The Genura system is a non-Federation colony in a trinary system, with three class J gas giants, 1 proto-planet and one M-class inhabited planet, Genura III.

Although it is a trinary star system, one star remains in a neutron state, allowing Genura III to develop into a M-Class planet in relatively recent cosmological time. Genura III's elliptical orbit subjects it to massive gravitational stresses when it passes between its parent stars.

Genura III's colony numbers approximately 4,000 people who not under subject to the Prime Directive. It is unclear how Genura III evolved so quickly to possess interstellar warp-flight and subspace communications, within such dangerous gravitational wells.

Aurix

This is a single star system Aurix II is a desert planet and a former Federation research colony. On stardate 23850704.24 Admiral Joh'qui sent USS Discovery-B to Aurix II after it ceased subspace communication. Aurix II's fate was apparently within the scope of involvement of the Q. USS Discovery rescued one survivor, Annette Garrison.
