The planet of the time vortex was discovered by the crew of the in 2267 and was revisited in 2269 by Captain James T . Kirk and his science officer Spock , accompanied by a team of historians . ( ; ) Background information . The planet was not named in the episodes . It was called " the planet of the time vortex " in " Yesteryear " dialogue , and " the time planet " in the script notes . In the reference works , such as " Star Trek Maps " ( p . 30 ) and " The Worlds of the Federation " ( p . 136 ) , the name " Time Planet " was also used .

In the originally aired version of " The City on the Edge of Forever " , the planet , as viewed from space , was represented with stock footage . However , the same footage was used in many other TOS episodes . For the " remastered " version of " The City on the Edge of Forever " , a new , computer - generated version of the planet was created to replace the stock footage . The novelization of " Yesteryear " ( in " Star Trek Log 1 " ) calls it the " Time Planet " names a city on the planet as " Oyya " . In the novel " " , the planet is referred to in the 25th century as " Forever World " , since giving it anything other than such a Guardian - referencing name was felt to have been , in the words of one character , " " . . . like painting a mustache on the face of God . " " The novel " Yesterday ' s Son " and " Star Trek Online " have called the time vortex planet " Gateway , " a reference to the Guardian of Forever ' s final spoken line in " The City on the Edge of Forever " , " " Let me be your gateway . " " In the short story " Guardians " , the planet is called the " Rock of Ages " . Trellium mining planet .

" Enterprise " visited this planet in September of 2153 because a freighter captain informed them that he had taken a Xindi there some time ago . Upon arrival , Captain Jonathan Archer and Commander Tucker were forced to provide a half - liter of liquefied platinum to the foreman of the north mine to see the Xindi , a Primate named Kessick .

In the north there was the Rykos shoreline , the southern tip of which was 227 kilometer s from the polar island chain . These islands featured a pyroclastic debris field , lava tube s , and the hydrothermal pools of Ren - gham . The planet also featured ravines . However , as Skalaar mentioned these things after learning Archer ' s name , it is possible he made these features up to earn Archer ' s trust and be able to kidnap him .

There was also an unusual microbe which was capable of inducing " pon farr " in Vulcan s . The microbe was also suspected of being more dangerous to Human s than to Vulcans or Denobulan s . ( ) Vintaak system gas giant . The Vintaak system contained at least one planet , this ringed gas giant with several moons . " In the mirror universe , it was located in Tholian space , and one moon contained a Tholian base . " ( ) Volterra Nebula planets .

This planet , between the neighboring Vulcan and Andorian system s , was the site of the P ' Jem monastery . A nearby ringed moon was visible in the sky of the planet . The planet was known to the Vulcan s since at least the early 1st millennium BC . The construction of the monastery at P ' Jem , later consecrated to the memory and teachings of Surak , predated the Time of Awakening by over twelve centuries . By the 22nd century , the Vulcan High Command thought to capitalize on the planet ' s proximity to the Andorian homeworld by installing a massive long - range sensor array there . The ancient monastery provided cover for this spy station . Certain Andorian factions remained suspicious even after the peace treaty with the Vulcans . Imperial Guard commandos forcibly searched P ' Jem twice before the successful 2151 raid led by Thy ' lek Shran . Within a year , the spy station and its ancient cover had been destroyed . The planet was , perhaps more importantly , the site of the first association of Andorians and Humans , in the persons of Shran and Jonathan Archer . ( ) Their grudging partnership played no small part in bringing about the UFP Charter , ten years later . ( ) Background information . In the first draft script of " The Andorian Incident " ( which had the working title " Incident at P ' Jem " ) , this planet was called " Kro ' el " . In " Shadows of P ' Jem " , Archer calls P ' Jem the " Sanctuary at P ' Jem " , suggesting that either the area it was in or the planet was also called P ' Jem . In the final draft script of , Charles " Trip " Tucker made reference to " that Vulcan monastery on P ' Jem , " proving the planet was indeed meant to be called " P ' Jem " . However , this line did not make it on screen . The identified the planet as " P ' Jem " . It further stated that the monastery was founded on this Class M planet around 800 BCE . Then , in a note to the main entry " P ' Jem " , the authors said that " " it is not entirely clear whether P ' Jem was the name of the planet or simply the name of the monastery " " . This planet appears only in " The Andorian Incident " . For that episode , digital matte painting s of the planet were created by Black Pool Studios . " " Non - canon ical sources for the idea that this planet was called " P ' Jem " include " Star Trek Online " and the reference book " " . According to the latter source ( p . 45 ) , the planet was located in the system . It was a stop on the Vulcan trade routes in the 22nd century . P ' Jem was located in the Beta Quadrant .
