Antares

The Antares system is a binary star system located in the Antares sector of the Alpha Quadrant. The primary star of the system is Antares (or Alpha Scorpii). However the twin stars are referred to as Antares A and Antares B. (TOS episode: "Charlie X" and VOY episode: "Message in a Bottle").

The system's inhabitants are known as the Antarans, who have spread out across the system from Beta Antares IV. The Antarans are Federation Members and are represented on the Federation Council. As a result, Starfleet has constructed the Beta Antares Ship Yards in the system. (ENT episode: "The Breach", TOS novel: Death's Angel; and VOY episode: "Message in a Bottle").
