History and specifics
The system was located in proximity to Yed Posterior and Ascella. Zeta Boötis was known to Humans as being visible from Earth in the Boötes constellation, about 180 light-years distant.
The Zeta Boötis system contained ten planets, including a class M third planet, Neural. (ST references: The Worlds of the Federation, Star Charts)
A treaty boundary quadrant 1 star chart showed Zeta Boötis in the general vicinity of Alpha Virginis near the border to treaty boundary quadrant 0. (ST reference: Star Trek Maps)
