The Genesis Planet was a planet located in the Mutara sector that was created from gaseous matter in the Mutara Nebula following the detonation of the Genesis Device, at the conclusion of a fierce battle between Khan Noonien Singh and Admiral James T. Kirk in 2285. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
History
Following the initial creation of the planet, Captain Spock's photon torpedo tube was launched towards it, following his funeral service. Because gravitational fields were in flux, his tube soft-landed on the planet's surface. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
The Genesis Planet immediately became a galactic controversy, and Starfleet declared it off limits until the Federation Council could decide what to do. In the meantime, the USS Grissom was dispatched with a scientific team that included the planet's co-creator, Dr. David Marcus, to carry out a thorough investigation.
A minor skirmish occurred in orbit during the final degradation of the planet where both the USS Grissom and the USS Enterprise were destroyed, and a Klingon Bird of Prey was co-opted by Admiral Kirk and his remaining crew. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
Ecology
 Early evolution of space microbes  Later evolution of space microbes |
Initial scans of the new planet, from Grissom, indicated several fascinating revelations, including "all the varieties of Earth's land and weather, within a few hours' walk," according to Dr. Marcus.
- Sector 1: Had foliage in fully-developed state of growth. Temperature: 22.2 °Celsius.
- Sector 2: Had desert terrain. Minimal vegetation. Temperature: 39.4 °Celsius.
- Sector 3: Had subtropical vegetation. Temperature decreasing rapidly. Indications of snow.
The same effect that hyper-evolved the plant life on the planet seemed to have the same effect on microbes on the surface of a burial photon torpedo that soft landed on the planet shortly after it was created. The microbes evolved in to multicellular organisms in a very short period of time.
Unstable protomatter, used in the matrix's construction by David Marcus in his haste to complete the Genesis Project, caused the ecosystems it had created to become dangerously erratic. This instability manifested itself first in an accelerated rate of growth, then in micro-climatic upheavals. Instead of flourishing, the planet began to experience heavy geologic activity that resulted in the entire surface becoming molten. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
Background
A lot of Genesis space microbes was sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay. [1]
