Tau Ceti II was a planet, the second planet located in the Tau Ceti star system in Federation space, near the Romulan Neutral Zone in the galaxy's Alpha Quadrant.
History and specifics[]
The world had no moons. (ST reference: The Worlds of the Federation)
An Andorian colony was established on Tau Ceti II. Ensign Boimler and Rutherford were sent as a small detail assigned to help establish a defence array to protect against Gelrakian raiders. (ST video game: Fleet Command: An Unwelcome Surprise Part 1)
It was also the site of a Daystrom Research Hub. (ST video game: Fleet Command: Nemeses Part 1)
Tau Ceti II's inhabitants were widely regarded as possessing great mineralogical expertise, and crystallized their local currency from pure sapphire. (TOS novel: Enterprise: The First Adventure)
At least during the 2270s decade, the Kaferia II orbiting station revolved around Tau Ceti II.
In the year 2273, while conducting training exercises in the system, the USS Potemkin orbited Kaferia II while Captain Syvar met with staff aboard its space station. Commander Spock rendezvoused with Potemkin while she was in orbit, then remained aboard as the vessel traveled from Kaferia II to Vulcan. (TOS eBook: Shadow of the Machine)

Background[]
- Because planets in Fleet Command are nominally backdrops for player characters to build orbital space stations, very few specifics about the actual nature of worlds are established in the game, beyond their general appearance and system locations.
