Gamma Trianguli was the primary of its star system, which included the inhabited planets Gamma Trianguli IV and Gamma Trianguli VI. This system was located in the Gamma Trianguli sector.

In 2293, the location of Gamma Trianguli in the Milky Way Galaxy was labeled in a star chart that was in Captain James T. Kirk's quarters aboard the USS Enterprise-A. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, okudagram; ENT: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II", product art)

Gamma Trianguli VI, the homeworld of the Vaalians, had an atmosphere which was regulated by the super computer Vaal. Under Vaal's governance, the atmosphere filtered out any harmful effects from the star. The Vaalians believed that Vaal caused the sun to shine. (TOS: "The Apple")

In 2368, the location of Gamma Trianguli was labeled on the tachyon detection grid that was displayed on one of the viewscreens of the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Redemption II", okudagram remastered)

According to the Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 37) and the Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the Gamma Trianguli system was located in the Alpha Quadrant. The primary was an A-class star.
