Val Jean

The Val Jean was a small raider-type craft operated by the Maquis during the early 2370s. The impulse engines of Val Jean were originally built in 2332.
In 2371, while under the command of Chakotay, the Val Jean was pursued by the Cardassian warship Vetar, Gul Evek's flagship. Chakotay ordered the ship into the Badlands to try to escape the Cardassians.
After eluding pursuit, the Val Jean was scanned by a coherent tetryon beam and transported into the Delta Quadrant by the . Once there, the crew was abducted and subjected to medical tests to determine their biological compatibility with the Caretaker. One of the crew, chief engineer B'Elanna Torres, was removed from the others and sent to the surface of .
In order to recover his missing crewmember, Chakotay reluctantly joined forces with Starfleet captain Kathryn Janeway of the , who had been sent to capture him but had instead been pulled into the Delta Quadrant as well. The cooperation proved successful, and both Torres and Voyager crewmember Harry Kim were rescued.
Subsequently, both Voyager and the Val Jean were engaged in a dogfight by a small fleet of Kazon-Ogla warships, including a massive vessel. Because the Kazon vastly outgunned both Voyager and the Val Jean, Chakotay chose to perform a suicide run maneuver to destroy the much larger ship and "take some heat off [Voyagers] tail." The ramming was successful; the carrier was destroyed after colliding with the Caretaker's array, and Chakotay was beamed out of the cockpit in the nick of time.
Following the destruction of their ship, the Maquis crew were accepted as members of the Voyager crew and given temporary Starfleet commissions due to the unique circumstances. Although they came from hostile backgrounds, the two crews would have to work together to survive in the Delta Quadrant and return home to Earth. ()

Valen

General Valen was the commander of an which was lost in , an inert layer of subspace that trapped ships for over five years. To survive, he preyed upon unprepared vessels that arrived. When the ships first were pulled through the subspace tunnels, they were disoriented, and his surprise attacks were often devastating.
When was caught in the Void, Valen pretended to be an ally of Kathryn Janeway. Valen told Janeway that the only way to obtain energy and supplies within The Void is to attack new ships and steal their supplies. Janeway refused to do this even though it had lost most of its supplies to another ship that attacked it.
He later betrayed Janeway. Valen stole the supplies from the ship that attacked Voyager and refused to return them. Voyager recovered some of the supplies by knocking out Valen's shields. He attacked Voyager so that he could steal her power sources. After Voyager had formed an alliance with other ships in The Void in an attempt to escape, Valen attacked them. His attack failed when Voyager beamed over Fantome, a native of The Void, who sabotaged Valen's ship. Voyager and the other ships escaped. ()
== Background information ==
Valen was portrayed by Robin Sachs.
Valen was also the name of the messiah-figure of the Minbari on ; Robin Sachs played a Minbari member of the Grey Council in that series.
Valen's appearance differs slightly from that of Geral, the Annari captain seen in . He has grey skin and parts of his face are covered in scales. His nose is quite flat, and the nostrils are tear-drop shaped. It bears a striking resemblance to a Malon nose, seen on personnel such as Fesek and Pelk. () His mouth appears to have the same shape and size of a typical humanoid mouth, and his lips are the same color as his skin, perhaps indicating that the Annari are cold-blooded creatures. His eyes are brown, almost black, and he has no eyebrows, nor facial hair of any kind. He has a strangely shaped pattern on his temple, and just above this there is a ridge which curves towards the center of his forehead and runs down to the bridge of his nose, where it meets a similar ridge from the other side.

Valerian transport

A Valerian transport was a type of transport starship used by the Valerians in the 24th century.
The Valerian transport Sherval Das requested permission to dock at Deep Space 9 in 2369. Major Kira Nerys believed it was shipping dolamide explosives and wanted to confiscate the shipment. She began running a backgrounds check on the ship. When the transport entered the Bajoran system, the major delayed giving clearance for docking to the ship. The captain expressed he could not wait long, as the ship needed maintenance after a long journey. 
Her belief was strengthened when she learned the ship was following the route taken by Valerian transports during the Occupation of Bajor, when the Valerians were shipping dolamide to the Cardassians. The transport had visited Fahleena III, Mariah IV, and the station at Ultima Thule one week before it entered the Bajoran system. The ship later docked at the station, where it became the bone of contention between the staff officers who were being affected by the energy matrix of the Saltah'na energy spheres. ()

Vandor IV

Vandor IV was an inhabited planetoid located in the Vandor system. The planetoid was located in the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. This planetoid was located at coordinates 664.8 × 1323.7 × 4949.9, which placed it in the middle of the system. It was in an elliptical orbit around the binary system. 
== History ==
In 2351, it was selected by Doctor Paul Manheim as the site for his time experiments. Along with his team, he built two laboratories on opposite sides of the planetoid, one of which was located at 20°9'N × 40°2'E. 
During the next decade, he managed to harness the of the dense gravity of the pulsar in the system to open a window into another dimension in 2364. This caused an accident that destroyed one of the labs, and created the Manheim Effect, a time distortion that started to spread through the galaxy. An immense of energy persisted inside the planetoid.
The hole was sealed by the crew of the , and Manheim remained on Vandor IV, along with his wife Jenice, to continue his work. ()

Vandor system

The Vandor system was an inhabited planetary system in the Alpha or Beta Quadrant. Located in a remote part of the Milky Way Galaxy, this was a binary star system consisting of a B-class giant and a pulsar and at least four planets. 
In 2351, the Vandor system was selected by Doctor Paul Manheim as the site for his experiments into time, as the dense gravity of the pulsar was vital for his work. He based his laboratory on a planetoid in the system, Vandor IV. 
Thirteen years later, the starship visited this system upon receiving a distress call from Jenice, the wife of Dr. Manheim. The ship's crew rescued both survivors, and isolated the origin of the Manheim Effect. ()

Vashti

Vashti was an inhabited planet located in a binary star system in the Qiris sector, within the Beta Quadrant. It had at least one moon, and was settled by Humans and Romulans. The indigenous lifeforms on the planet included insects. Locations included Central Station, North Station and Southeast Station, with roads and waterways.
==History==
Prior to 2385, this planet was chosen as a Romulan Relocation Hub by the Federation, receiving refugees from the Romulan Star Empire in anticipation of going supernova. Admiral Jean-Luc Picard was familiar with the world and was well-known to many of its inhabitants, including members of the Qowat Milat, who assisted the Federation with relocating over 250,000 refugees. The Fenris Rangers also assisted with the purchase and installation of a secondhand Romulan planetary defense system consisting of a security net and orbital killer drones.
By 2399, the inhabitants of Vashti suffered from poverty, degradation, and ethnic strife, which had not previously been present on the planet. Members of the Qowat Milat still resided on Vashti, many of them serving as an unofficial security force along major transport routes. Central Station on the planet served as the primary point of contact for interplanetary visitors. Vashti was also a hotbed of activity for members of the Romulan Rebirth movement, including former Senator Tenqem Adrev. 
Retired Admiral Picard visited Vashti again during that year for the first time since 2385, reuniting with members of the Qowat Milat and securing Elnor's companionship as a qalankhkai bound to his quest to locate Bruce Maddox and locate and protect Soji Asha. ()
A Vashti postcard was displayed on the wall of 10 Forward Avenue in 2401. () It was later included in a holodeck recreation of 10 Forward Avenue as well. ()
==Appendices==
===Background information===
Vashti was first described in the first season press kit as originally being a Human colony on the edge of "the old Romulan Neutral Zone".
===Apocrypha===
In the first Star Trek: Picard novel The Last Best Hope, the relocation of Romulan refugees to Vashti was depicted and often served as Admiral Picard's shining example of what successfully rendered aid could look like, among other efforts that were causing political friction with the Federation Council and Starfleet Command.
