United Planets of Tellar
The United Planets of Tellar is the state for the Tellarite civilization, which is centered around their homeworld of Tellar. The alliance was one of the five founding member states of the United Federation of Planets, having signed the Articles of the Federation on 12 August 2161, and is comprised of the thirteen worlds settled by the Tellarites prior to the signing.
History
- 1867: Scientist-astronaut Ranx dies when his self-made spacecraft crashes on the surface of Thenar, right after becoming the first Tellarite to enter the atmosphere of another planet.[1]
- By 1892: The Tellarites have established colonies within their star system, on Rukor, Sivel, and Varagas, and three of Boragus' moons.[1]
- 1892: Warp drive is invented on Tellar Prime by Garas.[2]
- Decipher's Worlds sourcebook says this happened in 1967, but that would invalidate the presence of Tellarites outside their system (as from ENT's "Carbon Creek"), as well as having warp capability in the 1950s.
- August 03, 2030: First contact between the Tellarites and Rigellian traders, whereby the former learn of the Orions.[3]
- 2073: The SS Leif Eirickson arrives in the Tellar system, marking first contact between the Tellarites and Humans.
- 2155: Alpha Centauri, Andor, Earth, Tellar, Vulcan, and minor worlds (including Axanar and Kaferia) approve a first draft agreement for an alliance to be formed for trade, cultural exchange, and mutual protection.[4]
- 2161: The governments of Alpha Centauri, Andor, Earth, Tellar, and Vulcan sign the Articles of the Federation; Alpha Centauri joins the United Federation of Planets.
