Background

While this planet's name is spelled as 'audet IX in the Star Trek Encyclopedia, it appears as 'aucdet IX in both the episode's script [1] and on an on-screen display monitor in the episode.

According to the script for "The Child", the name of the planet was pronounced "O-det Nine."

The planet model first used here for 'aucdet IX would later be used for Gagarin IV ("Unnatural Selection"), Galorndon Core ("The Enemy"), Barzan II ("The Price"), Jouret IV ("The Best of Both Worlds"), and Bilana III ("New Ground").
