Archanis

Archanis was the primary of the Archanis planetary system. The Federation-Klingon border was in close proximity to this system. The Archanis sector was named after this system.

In 2267, on stardate 3046, USS Enterprise helmsman Hikaru Sulu used Archanis as a reference point to plot the location of the Enterprise after it was flung five hundred parsecs by the Metrons. (TOS: "Arena")

The Federation-Klingon border was located in the Alpha Quadrant. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, production art)
