Jeraddo
The surface of Jeraddo.
Jeraddo (or Lunar V) was the fifth of Bajor's five moons.
In 2369, the Bajoran Provisional Government decided to utilize the moon's molten core to provide much needed energy for Bajor. However this process would leave the moon uninhabitable. The inhabitants agreed to leave and were relocated elsewhere in the Bajor system. Three people, however, refused to leave their home: Mullibok, Baltrim and Keena. They had no contact with Bajor and were unaware that the Cardassians had left the system several months earlier. After the Bajoran Militia attempted to remove them by force, Mullibok was injured. Without Mullibok to care for them, Baltrim and Keena were evacuated to Bajor. To force Mullibok to leave, Major Kira Nerys set the cottage on fire. Mullibok left and Jeraddo became uninhabitable. (DS9:"Progress")
Also located on Jeraddo, was Lunar V base, a small camp of the Bajoran Resistance, which stored a few sub-impulse raiders here. Furthermore, the Palukoo, a dog-sized arachnid, exists as one of the indigenous lifeforms. (DS9: "The Siege")
- Jeraddo is featured prominently in the computer game Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Fallen, in which Sisko and Worf must locate a Pah-wraith temple on the devastated moon containing an ancient mural that depicts the Orbs of the Pah-wraiths, as well as the formation of a second Celestial Temple.
- A version of these same events takes place in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Millennium novels.
