The Tree of Life planetoid was an otherwise unnamed class M planetoid located within the Gamma Cygnet region of the galaxy's Alpha Quadrant.
History and specifics[]
Zhyopha claimed that this planetoid was billions of years old and originated in a prior universe. Its purpose was to support the massive Tree of Life used for spawning a dangerous non-corporeal species of space beings. It was located not far from another planetoid.
Prior to 2269, the planetoid was uncharted by the Federation. In 2269, while tracking the space beings from Beta Niobe, the starship USS Enterprise discovered the world and its massive Tree of Life. A landing party explored the region near the tree's base. (TOS comic: "This Tree Bears Bitter Fruit")
- The quadrant location of this world, for the purposes of this wiki, is determined by the placement of the star Gamma Cygni and the constellation of Cygnus radiating away from Earth into the Alpha Quadrant in ST reference: Star Charts.
