Exo was a star system located along the border of quadrant 0 and treaty boundary quadrant 4 North[2] in the galaxy's Alpha Quadrant[3] [4].
History and specifics[]
The Exo system consisted of a dimming star with 11 planets within Federation space in the Alpha Quadrant, far from other inhabited systems. (Decipher RPG module: Worlds)
The star itself was a small type M red dwarf star, with an associated system of planets, that had begun to burn helium after exhausting its supply of hydrogen thousands of years ago. Star charts of treaty boundary quadrant 4 North indicated Exo to be in the general vicinity of Starbase 21. (ST reference: Star Trek Maps)
The star's energy was actually being drained by the One during his battle with Q 500,000 years ago. (TNG novel: Q-Strike)
In the late 22nd century, Exo was first charted by the Federation. (Decipher RPG module: Worlds)
By 2374, Jean-Luc Picard recalled having seen the Exo system on a star chart. (TNG novel: Immortal Coil)
