Tycho City was located near the Sea of Clouds on Earth's moon, Luna. This city was founded between 2069 and 2071. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone", okudagram; Star Trek: First Contact; ENT: "Terra Nova")
In 2071, Deron Warner was born in this city. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone", okudagram)
In 2087, Brian Vogt Raymond was born in this city. (TNG-R: "The Neutral Zone", okudagram)
In the 2240s, David Grant Raymond was born in this city. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone", okudagram)
By 2373, the city had self-contained atmosphere and artificial gravity, and was large enough to be seen from Earth in the daytime. Commander William T. Riker missed the familiar sight of the city, while looking at the Moon during his mission to the year 2063. (Star Trek: First Contact)
Dorian Collins and her family were from Tycho City. (DS9: "Valiant")
