The Garadius system, also known as the Delta Muscae system, was a star system in the Beta Quadrant. It was a binary star system consisting of the stars Delta Muscae A and Delta Muscae B and at least four planets. (PIC: "Disengage")

A planet in this system, Garadius IV, was inhabited and the destination of the USS Enterprise-D in 2368. (TNG: "The Next Phase")

Stellar cartography[]

The Garadius system was visible from Earth in the constellation Musca. It was approximately 91 light years from Sol.

In 2259, the location of this system was seen on a stellar cartography chart seen on the USS Enterprise's ready room viewscreen. Though it was near the Romulan Neutral Zone, it was marked with a white symbol, indicating that the system was not aligned with either the United Federation of Planets or the Romulan Star Empire. (SNW: "A Quality of Mercy")

This star system was only mentioned in writing.
In the episode "Disengage", the location of this star system was seen on the bridge of the SS Eleos XII on what appears to be an updated chart from Star Trek: Star Charts. Dave Blass published pictures of the set on his website.
Information on this system was derived from the episodes and films, from the reference works Star Trek: Star Charts and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library, and from real world sources. The reference works were used extensively in the creation of star charts seen in Star Trek: Discovery, Star Trek: Picard, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Star Trek: Prodigy, and Star Trek: Lower Decks. The real-world information added to the article was current as of 2025.
