Taurus II is the second planet of its star system, located in the Alpha Quadrant.
Classified as an M class planet, this is the homeworld for a species of anthropoids.
Located inside Murasaki 312 (a quasar-like phenomena), it is roughly three days away from Makus III at warp 1.
As of 2267, the planet had remained officially unexplored by the Federation. Long-range scans have revealed basic characteristics of this planet, such as its oxygen-nitrogen atmosphere.
- Shuttlecraft Galileo crash landed on Taurus II, while attempting to investigate Murasaki 312.
The crew made first contact with the inhabitants, but lost two crew members while on the surface.
- The inhabitants of Taurus II were documented to be anthropoids, ten to twelve feet in height.
They were at approximately a Stone Age level of technology, slightly less advanced than a tribal culture.
