Tarnak was a star system, located in Klingon Empire space somewhere in the galaxy's Alpha or Beta Quadrants.
History and specifics[]
The system was located 12 light years from the Klingon Empire's border with the Federation. It contained an asteroid belt.
The Tarnak system's orbit was the location of a number of worlds, including second planet Tarnak II, site of a Klingon colony.
In the year 2269, while investigating a distress signal at Tarnak II, the USS Enterprise evaded pursuit from Kang's battlecruiser by maneuvering through the system's asteroid belt. Sighting the Enterprise in the system sparked a major interstellar incident. (TOS - The Chosen comic: "The Hunted")
