Kolarus III

Kolarus III was the third of six planets in the Kolarin system. It was located in Federation territory near the Romulan Neutral Zone.

Kolarus III was first charted in 2379 as the Prime Directive interdicted any earlier interference with the native pre-warp civilization, consisting of isolated pockets of humanoids in an early stage of industrial development. The planet was dominated by vast savannas and deserts with little surface water. It had an orbit of 1.2 AU about Kolarus Prime, and a mass of 5.972 × 1024 kg. Combined with its atmosphere mixture O2/N2, it could support Human life.

That year the Federation starship USS Enterprise-E visited the planet following a positronic signal. The signal was emitted by parts of the Soong-type android, B-4, which were scattered over a few kilometers over the planet's surface. After a surface team collected the parts, they were attacked by the planet's natives, which, however, posed no serious threat for the team's superior technology, so they easily escaped. This mission was Captain Jean-Luc Picard's first use of the new shuttlecraft Argo. (Star Trek Nemesis)
