* SFC's [[System_Naming_Conventions#Planets|naming rules]] indicate that the star's most important planet (i.e., Tau Ceti Prime) is the first one. However, the [[Kaferians]]' homeworld is [[Tau Ceti III]] and a known [[Human]] colony is on [[Tau Ceti IV]]. For this planet to be the most important suggests an early colony (Human?) was established prior to the other one and before the Kaferians achieved spaceflight (because why would they consider that planet more important than their homeworld?).
* It was decided, for SFC, to make Tau Ceti Prime the same as Tau Ceti IV, since the latter was an early and well-known [[Human]] colony, but could have only been founded ''after'' another planet named "Prime". Naming the same planet both solves the chronological events problem.
 
* Presuming Tau Ceti Prime is a colony world that is larger or more important than Tau Ceti IV, then it is most likely a Class L, M, O, or P. Weight is not given to the glaciated class, because Janeway's death is noted to have occurred under a ''polar'' ice cap, which would exist on all four classes of planets.

History

  • June 20, 2156: The Romulans attempt to take Tau Ceti IV, a Human colony, and engage a task force of Andorian, Tellarite, and Starfleet warships. After suffering heavy losses, the Andorians and Tellarites retreat to the edge of the system, while most of the Human ships remain and are destroyed (including USS Atlantis). The colony, Amber, is bombarded and all colonists massacred.[2][3]
  • 2358: Vice Admiral Len Janeway is killed on Tau Ceti Prime while test-piloting a prototype ship, Terra Nova, on the planet's polar ice cap.[5]
The first name is taken from his name in an okudagram, instead of the one (Edward) from the novel Mosaic.

Important Locations

Notes

  • It was decided, for SFC, to make Tau Ceti Prime the same as Tau Ceti IV, since the latter was an early and well-known Human colony, but could have only been founded after another planet named "Prime". Naming the same planet both solves the chronological events problem.
