Well, to quote Wiki: > [@](#): > > Vulcan was an inhabited M-class planet in the Vulcan system, a system located in Sector 001 of the Alpha Quadrant. It had no moons, but appeared to have close planetary companions. It was the homeworld of the Vulcans, a warp-capable humanoid species. (TOS: “The Man Trap”, “Amok Time”; TAS: “Yesteryear”; Star Trek: The Motion Picture; VOY: “In the Flesh”; ENT: “Strange New World”; DIS: “Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad”) > > Vulcan was a founding member of both the Coalition of Planets in 2155 and the United Federation of Planets in 2161. (ENT: “Zero Hour”, “Demons”, “Terra Prime”, “These Are the Voyages…”) During the Dominion War of the late 24th century, Vulcan’s strategic importance was on par with worlds like Andor, Berengaria VII, and Earth. (DS9: “In the Cards”, “In the Pale Moonlight”) ---

I don’t think this is at all true. In fact, I think you made the whole thing up. ---

Didn’t that poster actually shuffle off this mortal coil back in 2007? He \*also \*claimed Vulcan was an inhabited M-class before he croaked. Hence the (1) volcanoes AND the (2)war anthems AND the (3) equation. ---

“For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come when we have shuffled off this mortal coil…” I bet you don’t even know what that that means. ---

Just a heads up, someone here is posing as a dead poster. Don’t be fooled, that person died long ago. Forum rules forbid pointing him out by name, but I think you all know who I’m talking about. ---
