Aldebaran III was the third planet of the Aldebaran star system in the Alpha Quadrant and site of a Federation outpost. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country production art; TOS: "The Deadly Years")

A few years prior to 2267, Janet and Theodore Wallace performed experiments using carbohydrate compounds to slow the aging of plants at the outpost on Aldebaran III. (TOS: "The Deadly Years")

Background

According to Startrek.com, this planet and Aldebaron III were the same. The planet was a Federation member. [1]

Location notes

In the star chart "The Explored Galaxy", the star Aldebaran was positioned between the Tholian Assembly and Romulus. Both were identified in DS9: "Call to Arms" as being located in the Alpha Quadrant.

In the remastered "Up The Long Ladder", the HMS New Zealand was assigned to a diplomatic mission to Aldebaran. Captain Jean-Luc Picard asked for ...all Earth deep space launches...with a destination in or near the Ficus sector. The computer listed launches that, according to Commander William T. Riker, didn't end up in that sector. Probably then, Aldebaran would be located in a sector adjacent to Ficus.

Prior to 2151, Earth ships had been operating within 90 light years of the Sol system. In that year, the Enterprise became the first ship to travel further than this distance. With the diplomatic mission to Aldebaran in 2135, Aldebaran III was probably located within this range. (ENT: "Two Days and Two Nights")

Star Trek: Star Charts

According to the Star Trek: Star Charts ("United Federation of Planets I"), Aldebaran III (or Alpha Tauri III) was a Federation member in 2378.
