'''Regulus A''' was a [[Star Trek: Star Charts#Spectral classification|B-class star]] with a [[magnitude]] of +1, which was a hundred times brighter than [[Sol]]. '''Regulus B''' was a [[Star Trek: Star Charts#Spectral classification|M-class star]]. '''Regulus C''' was a [[Star Trek: Star Charts#Spectral classification|K-class star]]. In [[2152]], this system was in non-aligned space. Between 2152 and [[2378]], this system was incorporated into Federation space, and was a destination on the major space lanes.
