The Valo system was an inhabited planetary system in the Alpha Quadrant. It was located on the outskirts of Cardassian territory.

In the mid-24th century, many Bajoran refugees fled to this system during the Occupation of Bajor. The system had three M-class planets, all containing Bajoran settlements. These planets were designated as Valo I, Valo II, and Valo III. There was also a Bajoran settlement on the third moon of Valo I.

The USS Enterprise-D entered the system in 2368 to investigate a possible terrorist threat from resistance leader Orta to the Federation. (TNG: "Ensign Ro")

Background information[]

This system's quadrant of origin is inferred based on the position of the Cardassian Union in the star chart appearing in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".
