The location of Orion in *The Explored Galaxy* wall chart

Orion I was the inhabited first planet of its system. This system was located in the Orion sector, which was a region of space in the Alpha Quadrant.

Orion I was the location of a prestigious Institute of Cosmology. Crewman Mortimer Harren had hoped to attend the Institute of Cosmology there, and thus signed onto the USS Voyager because a year of field experience was required for admittance. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, production art; TNG: "Conspiracy", display graphic; VOY: "The Fight", "Good Shepherd")

In 2293, the location of Orion 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, production art)

-== Background ==
-=== "The Explored Galaxy" ===
-"The Explored Galaxy" was a map of charted space in the Alpha Quadrant. Orion was located between the [[Tholian Assembly]] and [[Romulus]]. Both locations were identified in {{DS9|The Search, Part II|Call to Arms}} as being located in this quadrant. This chart, first seen chronologically in {{film|6}}, was also seen in several ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' and ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'' episodes set in the [[24th century]], from the year [[2364]] to [[2370]]. These were: {{TNG|Conspiracy|The Measure Of A Man|The Emissary|The Mind's Eye|The Game}} and {{DS9|In the Hands of the Prophets|Cardassians}}.

-The Orion system was located in the [[Beta Quadrant]]. This system, also known as Pi 3 Orionis, was a [[multiple star system|trinary star system]]. Primary was a [[Star Trek: Star Charts#Spectral classification|Class F star]] with a magnitude of +3, which was ten times the brightness of [[Sol]]. Secondary and tertiary were Class F stars. In [[2120]], this was a destination on the final voyage of [[Zefram Cochrane]]. In the mid-[[22nd century]], this system was in non-aligned space, and was in proximity of the [[Vulcan (planet)|Vulcan]] trade routes. In the late [[24th century]], this system was located in or near Federation space, and this system was a destination on the major space lanes. (pgs. 36, 45, 60)
