The Ophiucus system (aka 36 Ophiuchi or Guniibuu) was a trinary system of at least six planets, located approximately 19.5 light-years from Sol in Sector 008 of the Beta Quadrant. All three stars were K class orange dwarfs; the primary and secondary were quite close together, while the tertiary orbited at a much greater distance. The system also had at least six planets.
The system was colonized by Earth in the late 22nd century. In 2256, the Klingons tried to take the system, but were repelled by the USS Discovery. From that period through the 2260s, smuggler and con man Harry Mudd committed multiple crimes in the system.
