"The Kaelons were an intelligent humanoid civilization native to the planet Kaelon II. They were isolationists and little was known of their culture off the planet. Kaelons were externally similar to Humans except for dark lines on the sides of their heads. Like Ferengi, they were immune to Betazoid telepathy. The Kaelons practiced ritual suicide at the age of 60 in a ceremony referred to as the Resolution. The practice was strictly enforced through social taboo, and any Kaelons who dared refuse Resolution risked ostracism, not only for themselves but all their family members as well. The Kaelons government included the Science Ministry. In 2367, it was led by Minister B'Tardat."@en . "Dara .jpg"@en . . . . . "In 2367 werden de Kaelons gedwongen om hulp aan de Federatie te vragen, omdat de zon van het Kaelon systeem stervende was en de tijd om het probleem op te lossen schaars werd. Starfleet was in staat om ze te helpen met een experiment dat de Kaelon wetenschapper, dokter Timicin had bedacht, om de stervende zon weer nieuwe kracht te geven. De Kaelons voerden een rituele zelfmoord uit als ze de leeftijd van zestig bereikten, in een ceremonie die de Resolutie heette. Er was sterke sociale druk op iedereen om het ritueel uit te voeren, wanneer nodig, door midden van een sociaal taboe. Iedere Kaelon die het durfde om de Resolutie te weigeren liep het risico op zware sociale problemen, zo ook alle familieleden van de betreffende persoon. (TNG: \"Half a Life\") Het experiment om de stervende zon van de Kaelons nieuwe kracht te geven in 2367 mislukte. Timicin was er van overtuigd dat hij het door middel van een aantal jaren onderzoek later kon laten slagen, maar door de Resolutie werd hem dit onmogelijk gemaakt. Het is onduidelijk of het project later geslaagd is."@nl . . . . . "The Kaelons were an intelligent humanoid civilization native to the planet Kaelon II.
