Beta Barania was a star system, located somewhere in 24th century Federation space in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants, near the border of Tholian territory.
History and specifics[]
The Beta Barania system's orbit was the location of a planetary system, including the Beta Barania colony planet. When the colony was attacked in the year 2371 by Tholian Assembly starships it sent a distress call that was received by the Starfleet vessel USS Enterprise. (TNG - War and Madness comic: "A Handful of Dust", page 10)
- The stellar notation using the Greek language letter "beta" indicates that there might be a star group or constellation of some sort named "Barania", of which Beta Barania would logically be indicated to be the second most prominent star or system.
