Earth, the homeworld of the Human species,[2] was the third planet in the Sol system.[2] The planet served as the capital of the United Federation of Planets.[5] In 2196, the Talosians viewed an image of the Sol system and many images of Earth’s history while accessing the U.S.S. Enterprise' NCC-1701's computer.[2]

Environment and Geography

A Class M planet,[2] Large portions of the planet remained off-limits to further development as conservation zones or wilderness parks.[13]

Humans spent centuries working to restore the planet's damaged ecosystems and to restore lost species,[5] including the reintroduction of humpback whales—belatedly determined to be a sapient species—via time travel in the 2220s.[5]

History

The twentieth century saw both democracy and despotism, and the conflicts between the two proved calamitous on a global scale. Two world wars resulted in hundreds of millions of deaths, both military and civilian, as well as the advent of weapons based upon nuclear fission.[11] As the century drew to a close, scientists used highly advanced genetic engineering techniques to produce a group of modified Humans who were superior to the species norm. They seized power in 40 nations. The most powerful, Khan Noonien Singh, reigned over a quarter of the planet's population at the height of his power. They soon fell out with one another, and conducted a series of internecine conflicts among themselves that, as a whole, were known as the Eugenics Wars. In 1996, Khan and more than 80 of his followers were forced to flee the planet in a DY-100 class spacecraft, which they dubbed the S.S. Botany Bay.[10]

Most contemporary accounts of the period were lost, and the historical record of the era remained fragmentary.[10] The Postatomic Horror gripped much of the planet in the latter half of the 21st century, and some areas saw a return to barbaric "courts" where guilt or innocence was less important than the entertainment of the masses, and military forces were controlled by the use of narcotics.[9]
