Valo system

The Valo system was an inhabited planetary system in the Alpha Quadrant. It was located on the outskirts of Cardassian territory.

Components

Stellar system

This was a single star system. The primary star Valo was a G-type dwarf.

Planetary system

The system had three M-class planets, designated as Valo I, Valo II, and Valo III. These planets were located in the system's habitable zone.

History

In the mid-24th century, many Bajoran refugees fled to this system during the Occupation of Bajor and settled on these planets. There was also a Bajoran settlement on the third moon of Valo I.

The USS Enterprise-D entered the system in 2368 to investigate a possible terrorist threat from resistance leader Orta to the Federation. (TNG: "Ensign Ro")

Background information

This system's quadrant of origin was inferred based on the position of the Cardassian Union in the star chart appearing in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".

In the script, the pronunciation for Valo was "VAH-lo". [1]

In the Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 47) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the Valos system was shown to be near the Federation-Cardassian border and, by the late 24th century, to be an independent system. Information on the system's primary came from these sources.

The system's primary's name came from StarTrek.com. [2](X)
