History and specifics[]
In the year 2266, Charles Evans' surviving relatives resided in the colony. After leaving the planet Thasus, Evans very much wanted to make it to the colony and used his psionic powers to assume control of the USS Enterprise and Captain James T. Kirk tried to overpower him by turning on all the devices on the ship. The Thasians' intervention returned all the crew members and ship to normal, and took Charlie back with them. (TOS episode: "Charlie X"; TOS - Star Trek 1 novelization: Charlie's Law)
Gwendolyn Plante of the USS Robinson was from Alpha V. Inhabitants of the planet had a distinct accent. (DS9 novel: Original Sin)
