A planet in proximity to Starbase Yorktown. In the mid 22nd century the USS Franklin crash-landed on Altamid after being flung into the depths of space by a wormhole. Only three of the crew survived, including Captain Balthazar M. Edison. They discovered the remains of a massive and sophisticated society on the planet, most of it underground. The Altamidians had long since departed the planet, but much of their technology remained intact there. [1] Balthazar came to master much of this technology, transforming himself into a local warlord and pirate. [1]
