Kapeshet was a star located in Sector Epsilon Z-3 of the Alpha Quadrant, presumably named for a person in ancient Thebes. The star was notable for its unusually large corona, which made sensor readings in the Kapeshet system difficult and presented a radiation hazard. On stardate 1305.4, Commander Spock of the USS Enterprise discovered a previously undetected planet, named M-155, in orbit of Kapeshet. (TOS novel: Strangers from the Sky)
