Forlat III was the formerly inhabited third planet in its star system. A colony was located on this Class M planet.
This world was attacked by the Crystalline Entity. Settlers on the planet attempted to seek refuge in tunnels with strong deposits of kelbonite but were still absorbed by the entity.
Forlat III was one of the eleven attack sites recorded, and one of the three where settlers took refuge in caves. Dr. Kila Marr examined this planet before the attack on Melona IV in 2368. (TNG: "Silicon Avatar")
This planet was only mentioned in dialogue.
The planet's class came from the Star Trek Encyclopedia, 4th ed., vol. 1, p. 281.
