Background[]

Epsilon Eridani was identified as Vulcan's star in the reference book Spaceflight Chronology, as well as in the TOS novel: Strangers from the Sky. However, in 1991, Gene Roddenberry along with three astrophysicists determined 40 Eridani A (first suggested as the Vulcan sun by James Blish in Star Trek 2) was the more likely candidate. This has subsequently been reinforced in other novels, and canonically in the ENT episode: "Home". Page 16 of The Federation also names Epsilon Eridani as the host star of Vulcan, page 72 however correctly identifies its host star as 40 Eridani.

Real-life astronomy currently has determined Epsilon Eridani to be a singular star with a large gas giant planet, but Star Charts shows the location as a binary star, although some binaries listed in Star Trek publications use that description for systems with stellar-sized gas giant companions instead of additional stars. FASA RPG module: The Four Years War provided Axanar the alternate system name Delta Orcus and called this a K0 type orange dwarf, another slight difference from real-life observations.

In the name "Delta Orcus", the stellar notation using the Greek language letter "delta" indicates that there might be a star group or constellation of some sort named "Orcus", of which Delta Orcus would logically be indicated to be the fourth most prominent star or system.

In TNG video game: Birth of the Federation, the orbital configuration of the game map star systems was randomly generated each time a new game started.
