Nornius Beta was a planet located somewhere in the space of the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants, in or near the 24th century boundaries of Federation territory, inhabited by sentient life and host to visits by Federation humanoids.
History and specifics[]
While in a bar on Nornius Beta, Adrian Dareau fought off some muggers, and allegedly left them "draped over the chandeliers". Barb was also there and, after seeing Dareau fight, asked him to help her rescue a kidnapped person. (TNG novel: Survivors)
- The stellar notation using the Greek language letter "beta" indicates that there might be a star group or constellation of some sort named "Nornius", of which Nornius Beta would logically be indicated to be located in the second most prominent star or system (as a first planet or prime planet) or perhaps be the second planet in such a region and/or system.
