A Class M planet, Beta III[1] was the third planet of five[2] orbiting the second of two yellow stars[3] in System C111,[1] also known as UFC 611.[2] The planet was first visited by the U.S.S. Archon in 2107, but the ship was never heard from again. A century later, on Stardate 3156.2, the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 visited Beta III to investigate the Archon's disappearance. The Enterprise crew discovered that the planet's population was controlled by Landru, a computer intelligence, and it forced the Archon from orbit a century earlier, "absorbing" the survivors into "The Body." Captain Kirk persuaded Landru that it was harming the people that it was built to protect, and it short-circuited and shut down, leaving the Betans without the computer's guidance for the first time in six millennia. The Enterprise left a team of sociologists to help the population recover.[1]
