Gamma Arietis (also known as Mesarthim) is a trinary star system in Federation space consisting of the three companion stars located about 60 parsecs (200 light years) from Earth, where it is visible in the constellation of Aries. (TOS - Rihannsu novel: Swordhunt)

The planets Vellurius, Valerian, the Mesarth species's homeworld (Mesarthim), and Starbase 20 are all located in this triple system. (TOS comic: "There's No Space Like Gnomes'!")

Since Gamma Arietis is a "real" star system, modern scientists know a few things about its distance and makeup that were not in Star Trek.
