Rigel, the lower right star (knee) of the constellation Orion.

Rigel (or Beta Orionis) is a star and the primary of the Rigel system, and makes up part of the constellation Orion. (TNG: "Family") The star is in or near Federation space. (TNG: "Conspiracy")

[edit] Background

Rigel was mentioned as a small note on a very large star chart graphic created for TNG: "Conspiracy". It was the image behind the chair in the room where Dexter Remmick was killed. It appears to be located within an outlined block, which may indicate that it was surrounded or was even a part of Federation territory at the time. In TNG: "Yesterday's Enterprise", Rigel was also listed, in an alternate timeline, on a tactical situation monitor showing the progress of the Klingons in their war with the Federation.
