The planets of the Beta Rigel system in Star Charts are inextricably linked to those of the Rigel system seen in other sources. In a merged continuity, the United Rigel Colonies would likely comprise Federation-settled colonies on the worlds of Rigel II, Rigel IV, Rigel V (each are stated to be Federation members in other sources), Rigel VI and Rigel X.
