Valeo Beta V

Frozen world where Hemmer dies

An icy, storm-swept planet where the USS Peregrine crashes and an Enterprise landing party is hunted by newly hatched Gorn in the Strange New Worlds episode All Those Who Wander.

Valeo Beta V is a frozen planet whose atmosphere blocks communications and transporters. In All Those Who Wander, set in 2259, Pike leads a landing party there to look for the missing USS Peregrine while the Enterprise carries on with an urgent delivery.
The ship is found crashed and its crew dead. The only survivors are a human girl named Oriana and an alien called Buckley, both picked up by the Peregrine earlier. Buckley is carrying Gorn eggs, and the hatchlings that burst from him grow quickly and stalk the party through the wreck, killing Cadet Chia and Lieutenant Duke.
The crew lure the last one into the cold and freeze it. Chief engineer Hemmer, who has been infected, walks out of the ship and throws himself to his death before the eggs can hatch. Afterwards La'an takes leave to find Oriana's family.
