Vega colony is a Federation colony on Vega IX in the Vega system.
When the colonists arrived, many contracted Vegan choriomeningitis, a deadly disease created by the ancient extinct natives of the planet. Unfortunately, the disease was not detected before colonists spread it to other Federation worlds, resulting in a widespread outbreak. A vaccine was quickly developed upon its discovery. (ST reference: The Worlds of the Federation)
The USS Enterprise travelled to Vega colony in 2254 to make use of the medical facilities there to treat casualities from the coup on Rigel VII. (TOS episode: "The Cage"; EV comic: "Nor Iron Bars a Cage")
According to another source, Vega Colony (located in the Alpha Lyrae system) was established by Humans some time prior to the mid-22nd century and served as a major trading partner for Earth. (Reference book: Star Trek: Star Charts) Earth cargo ships were also known to trade between Vega Colony and Draylax. (ENT episode: "Borderland")
In an alternate timeline, Vega Colony was wiped out by the Xindi following their destruction of Earth in 2154. (ENT episode: "Twilight")
In yet another alternate timeline where Terra Prime succeeded in creating an isolationist Earth, Vega Colony was a member of the United Earth’s commonwealth. In addition, it sat on the outskirts of Earth’s territory and not far from the border with the Interstellar Coalition, a union of Vulcans, Andorians, Tellarites, and Denobulans.
In 2264, the U.E.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701, under the command of Captain Christopher Pike, was responding to a twenty-nine year old distress signal from the SS Columbia, when it was ambushed by three Orion vessels hidden in the Robinson Nebula. The Orion pirates were driven off by the V’Lar, an Interstellar Coalition ship, but not before the Enterprise suffered significant damage. The Enterprise eventually returned to Vega Colony, at Warp 2, for repairs. (Star Trek: Myriad Universes novel: A Less Perfect Union)
