Castor

For other uses, see Castor.

Castor (also known as Alpha Geminorum or 66 Geminorum) was a star system, a multiple star located in Federation space in the galaxy's Beta Quadrant.

History and specifics[]

The Alpha Geminorum system's orbit is the site of a planetary system that contains the Federation world Roxan and site of a Starfleet outpost. (FASA RPG module: The Federation)

The FASA RPG source material lists this as a "mixed" population, making it unclear whether it is a colony world or the homeworld of a native inhabitation that also hosts populations of other Federation member races and cultures.

Castor's multiple system consists of six stars, including Castor B, which is orbited by Castus. The Castor system is visible from Earth in the Sol system, 49 light-years distant, as part of Human history's Gemini constellation. (TOS video game: 25th Anniversary; ST reference: Star Charts)

Kelvin timeline[]

The Castor vicinity was in neutral space unclaimed by major governments by the 23rd century in the Kelvin timeline, with the only notable known nearby system being Protari. (ST video game: Fleet Command)

Background[]

In TNG video game: Birth of the Federation, the orbital configuration of the game map star systems was randomly generated each time a new game started. Neither were any history or specifics are established for this location in Starfleet Command III, as its name was arbitrarily selected for a Federation system on the game map by the game software, with random attributes. The system has an ID code of 1919858549 in the Fleet Command game software.

Although Star Charts identified this as a five-star stellar group, modern astronomy currently assigns orbital information for six distinct stars, in three binary pairings.
