==History==

* c.250,000 ya: A massive planetary nuclear war renders the surface of Talos IV uninhabitable. The survivors retreat into the underground, eventually developing significant [[telepathy|telepathic and telekinetic]] abilities. (TOS: "The Cage", "The Menagerie")
* 2254: Interdicted under [[General Order 7]] following contact with the [[USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|USS Enterprise]] (TOS: "The Menagerie")
** Specific justification for the interdiction kept classified (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")

==Indigenous Life==
===Plant===

* Windsinger (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
** Resembles a cluster of metallic, wire-thin stems, each terminating in a single metallic-blue leaf (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
** Microserrations in the leaves lead to a continuous rising and falling tone as airflow changes (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
** Spread to dozens of planets during the Talosian spacefaring era (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
*** ''Established as a wink-nudge reference to the common reuse of the flower's sound effects as ambient noise on other planets during TOS''
** Botanical plague during the late 23rd century led to the extinction of the plant on most worlds outside Talos IV (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
*** Starfleet botanical gardens still held a sample following this (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
** Attempts at breeding a hardier strain able to survive unprotected in [[Earth]]'s biosphere bore fruit by 2376 (SCE Short Story: "Aftermath")
