Just reguarding Alpha Centauri... I don't know which thread it was in now, it was last year sometime, and we were trying to work out things about Mars colonisation etc... anyway I suggested that Cochrane could have come from Alpha Centauri etc... that Earth might have already travelled that far using Non warp... they could have found a habitable planet and so, instead of having to terraform mars, they could have set up new populations on a planet there...

Mizarian... first seen in Alliegence... I don't think they are members of the Federation - or maybe now they are... that Chalnoth person said that they were pacifists who had been invaded many times...
Speaking of which... how many times in early TNG was Pacifica mentioned... I wonder if this is just a world the Feds took over, or IT had inhabitants...
The Kai mentions Berengaria in "In the Cards" doesn't she?

I can think of two instances off the top of my head.
The Enterprise was enroute there for a research assignment and shore leave in "Conspiracy" when Picard diverted the ship to Dytallix "B."
The Enterprise transported two Antedian delegates (in reality, assassins) and Ambassador Lwaxanna Troi to Pacifica for the admission hearing for the Antedian government in "Manhunt."

Does anyone picture Pacifica as a giant ball of water?

(Besides, "30 Days" already gave us a "planet" that literally was a big ball of water...)
Pacifica features in the new Vornholt novels "Genesis Wave I&II", and (based on the spoilers I've read so far) is considered a remote sanctuary, a safe place to keep Carol Marcus hidden from the public view.
Some more info on Pacifica: judging by "Conspiracy", it is less than five lightyears from the real star Mira, also known as Omicron Ceti. *This* star has had a human presence for some time before the events of "Conspiracy": first there were those colonists led by Elias Sandoval in TOS "This Side of Paradise", and after Kirk forcibly evacuated them, Dytallix Mining Corporation set up shop on another planet in that system. However, by "Conspiracy", the system was empty.
So we know where Pacifica is: in a (formerly) well-traveled part of the Federation, some 150 ly rimwards from Earth. Now if we could just have a look... (Alas, "Genesis Wave" hasn't arrived yet to the local bookstores!)

It's also used by the Federation for mediation and admission: the Antedians' application for admittance in the UFP was to be considered there, before the delegates were revealed to be assassins.
It's apparently also used as Shore Leave ...

I attempted a similar list awhile ago, though I stuck to mining the encyclopedia for my planets and systems and, I think, in one or two cases, nebulae. Where there is more than one inhabited planet in a star system, I just listed the star. So, for instance, I've got the Rigel system, which includes five such worlds, I think. Also, I cast my net rather wide when it came to considering whether a world belonged to the UFP or not. Essentially, if a world had a Federation installation of any sort on it, except where such a facility was explicitly stated to not be in UFP space (Such as the research station on Bak'u, although Bak'u itself was surrounded by the Federation, or so we were led to believe.).

New Paris is no longer part of the Federation. Remember: those were the guys who had standing orders to kill any Federation citizen who arrived. Legacy. Also Tasha Yar's birthplace, as it were.

Um..NO. Wrong.
New Paris was on Makus III. Tasha was from Turkana IV.

Yes, that is a very long list as well I have made a difference between Federation planets and Federation members. I doubt planets like Ajilon Prime, Relva VII, Memory Alpha and Inferna are individual members (they are described as 'Federation colonies' or do not even have inhabitants).

Do all Caitian 'women' have three breasts... did M'Ress? Or maybe the Cestus III Caitian... genetically engineered...
Did "TFF" or "Total Recall" come out first... because both movies had the same 'joke'...

M'Ress definitely had just two breasts, unless it was fashionable at that time to pad out the outer two and squeeze the middle one into invisibility.
And "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" came before either STV or "Total Recall".
posted
Hmmmm, Caitians could have more than 2 nipples - a la Cat from Red Dwarf... so the Caitian in TFF, might have just 'enhanced' a third breast... and pushed it up!?!
P.S. What was that game that she was drowned in? A Form of Dom Jot!?!
