Njura is a planet located in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrant. It is the largest inhabited planet in its star system and the homeworld of the advanced Njuran civilization.
Specifics[]
Njura features two very large islands and four continents, three of which contact its equator. Although Njurans did not develop a weather modification network, the planet's weather was tracked and predicted accurately by a central meteorological center. Eleven massive nuclear reactors transmitted energy via orbital satellites to supply public electricity. Two such generators could supply power to 100 million people.
History[]
By the 13th century, Njurans had developed spacecraft and begun to colonize neighboring planets. For the next millennium, Njura was the center of an interplanetary empire.
In the 23rd century, a generation-long civil war led to democracy on Njura and independence for its four colony worlds in 2260.
In 2270, Njura celebrated the tenth anniversary of disarmament. A landing party from the USS Enterprise attended a parade and stadium gala. (TOS comic: "To Err Is Vulcan")
