History
- 731: Rigel IV is settled by the Zami of Rigel V, who work with the transplanted Kaylars to develop the planet.[1]
- This probably occurred not too much earlier (no more than a few hundred years at most).
- The source says it happened in the 2180s. This also does well syncing up with the "no earlier than 2156" target raised in TOS episode "Wolf In the Fold".
- 2293: Following an investigation by Star Fleet that uncovers prostitution, illegal animal trading, and child slavery as endemic to the culture and government of Rigel IV and V, both planets are immediately suspended from the Federation.[4]
- 2297: After very public internal investigations and prosecutions of the identified slavers, Rigel IV and V are re-admitted into the Federation.[2]
- The expulsion and re-admission is SFC-canon; the date of admission is from the source.
Important Locations
- unnamed pergium refinery
Notes
- Pirates (presumably Orion-led) operated from this planet, until it joined the Federation.
- Rigel IV has deposits of boridium and murinite.<ref name=MA_Rigel4>Memory Alpha: "Rigel IV"</ref.
