Discovered on Stardate 2713.5 by the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701,[1] UFC 347601 III[2] was 24,874 miles in diameter, had a mass of 6⨯1021 tons, a mean density of 5.517, and possessed a Class M atmosphere of oxygen and nitrogen — exactly the same as Earth.[1] The planet was later dubbed Onlies — after its inhabitants — by the Federation, to differentiate it from Earth (Sol III).[3]
The adult population of the planet was killed by a viral experiment c.1966. The surviving children, who now called themselves the Onlies, had their aging slowed dramatically — aging only one month for every century — but were slowly dying as they reached maturity and the virus then accelerated their metabolism to fatal effect. The Enterprise crew found a cure, however, allowing them to survive.[1]
The planet's and its system's very existence held uncertain ramifications for both the scientific and religious communities on Earth. One theory held that the system was a result of a massive tear in the spacetime continuum that, at some point in the past several centuries, the Sol system passed, replicating it on the subatomic level. Alternately, the Judeo-Christian religions believed that the system was a result of a simultaneous, separate creation by God.[3]
