Zargot was a class M planet located in the Alpha Helios star system. It was the homeworld of the space-faring Zargotians.
History[]
In the 23rd century, one Zargotian city on the planet had grown large enough to be spotted from orbit.
In 2266, Captain James T. Kirk and Doctor Leonard McCoy beamed down to the surface of Zargot. They discovered magnificent vegetation and a sprawling city, but the Zargotians were all suffering from a creeping sickness plague. McCoy met with their top physician, Doctor Ixta, who believed an antidote could be made from Coltac herbs. The USS Enterprise retrieved the herbs and returned to Zargot. The populace was quickly cured, and fireworks were lit above the city in celebration. (TOS comic: "Target: Zargot")
