  • Bersallis III
rdfs:comment
  • Bersallis III was a Federation research colony. It was home to six hundred colonists of twenty-eight species, including the Pandrilites. This planet cycles through six and a half years of good times seperated by firestorms that envelop the planet. These firestorms get over three hundred degrees centigrade with winds of over three hundred and fifty kilometers per hour. This colony was used to study the effects of high-atmosphere plasma on airborne flora. This was also the first place to synthesize diberylium and identify seven varieties of bad bacteria. Red and silver flakes of tridianite and sorbomite were also found here. The colony itself was protected from the firestorms by a shield grid. (ST - New Worlds, New Civilizations short story: "Ashes, Ashes")
  • Bersallis III was the third planet in the Bersallis system. Until 2369, this planet was home to a Federation outpost. The planet was subject to violent fire storms every seven years. The fire storms would form when solar flare radiation from the Bersallin sun reacted with high energy plasma that was present in the planet's atmosphere. Although the next fire storm was not expected until 2370, in 2369 an unusually large and fast-moving fire storm overwhelmed the colony's defenses established for that purpose. The USS Enterprise-D was dispatched to the planet to evacuate the colonists before the fire storm destroyed the colony.

  • Bersallis III was the third planet in the Bersallis system. Until 2369, this planet was home to a Federation outpost. The planet was subject to violent fire storms every seven years. The fire storms would form when solar flare radiation from the Bersallin sun reacted with high energy plasma that was present in the planet's atmosphere. Although the next fire storm was not expected until 2370, in 2369 an unusually large and fast-moving fire storm overwhelmed the colony's defenses established for that purpose. The USS Enterprise-D was dispatched to the planet to evacuate the colonists before the fire storm destroyed the colony. Lieutenant Commander Nella Daren led several away teams to the surface to establish a barrier using thermal deflector units, a technique she was familiar with through previous experience. The mission was ultimately successful and the 643 colonists were evacuated but eight members of the Enterprise-D crew were lost. (TNG: "Lessons" )
