The USS Voyager visited the colony in 2378 when they detected several Talaxian life signs nearby. When Voyager arrived, however, no response to their hails were received. The crew decided to send an away team in the Delta Flyer to investigate. Unfortunately, a group of aliens were conducting a mining operation in the asteroid field and the Flyer was hit by a Thermolytic charge, causing it to crash on the Talaxians' asteroid. The crew was only slightly injured, but the Talaxians were suspicious of them and confined them. After determining that the Flyer's crew was not a threat, they were released and asked to leave.
