Encyclopedia > Andoria


In the fictional Star Trek universe, Andor (or Andoria) is the homeworld of xenophobic blue antennaed aliens, called Andorians. Prior to the formation of the United Federation of Planets, it was the capitol world of the Andorian Empire.


The semi_canon book Star Trek: Star Charts identifies Andor's home star as Procyon VIII (Alpha Canis Minoris) in the Beta Quadrant. Andor is in close proximity to Betazed, Earth, and Vulcan.


Andorians frequently decorate with geode stones, which may indicate an abundance on their homeworld. The planet boasts the Andorian Academy of Art, said to be the finest school of its type.


Native lifeforms include the a horse-like animal called a 'zabathu;' the 'Andorian bull,' noted for stomping around when angry; and the 'Andorian amoeba,' which reproduces through symbiogenesis.


In the 26th century (or one possible version thereof), the Federation defeats the Sphere Builders at the Battle of Procyon V. One might suppose that in this timeline, Andor is destroyed or severely damaged by spatial anomalies, smilar to those found in the Delphic Expanse.




Andor:


Name (m), meaning: The Manly, The Strong;


Thor and Wodan are, respectively, the Nordic and Germanic gods of thunder and lightning
