A star system mentioned in Starfleet Academy by the pirate Nus Braka, who claims he used to charge travellers for passage between two of its planets.
The Taygeta system is referred to in the Starfleet Academy episode Come, Let's Away. It is not seen, and is known only from a story told by Nus Braka, leader of the Venari Ral pirates.
When Starfleet is forced to seek Braka's help against the creatures known as the Furies, he boasts about his holdings, among them a stretch of space lying between two unstable wormholes. He recalls that he once made people in the Taygeta system pay him for travel between Taygeta I and Taygeta IV.
By his account, that income dried up once the Federation began supplying dilithium so that the locals could run warp drives of their own. The anecdote illustrates how figures like Braka profited from the isolation that followed the Burn, and why he resents the Federation's return.
