=== Background information ===
A picture of a star chart supposedly used for was tweeted by Ted Sullivan on 28 November 2017. According to this map, the star Andoria was also known as Procyon, or Alpha Canis Minoris. 
The star chart seen in Fleet Admiral Clancy's office used this label, "Procyon (Andoria)", connecting these two locations together.
In the final draft script of , the Andorian sun was said to be "powerful" and, as seen from the surface of Andoria, to radiate "brilliant sunlight with a slightly bluish hue."
The star chart naming the stars within twenty light years of Sol was drawn by Rick Sternbach for the Star Trek Spaceflight Chronology (p. 77) in the late 1970s. This chart showed Earth commercial and exploration routes after the use of warp drive began. There were no commercial or exploration routes to this system.
According to the Star Trek: Star Charts (pp. 19 & 36) and the Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the two stars of the Procyon (Andoria, Alpha Canis Majoris) star system were a F-class star and an A-class star. An inhabited moon, Andoria (the Andorian homeworld), was located in this system. In the 22nd century, the system was a stop on the Earth trade routes. The system was located in Sector 006 (Andorian Sector). According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 62) and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), Andoria, also known as Procyon and Alpha Canis Majoris, was a multi-star with a F-class star and an A-class star.
