As the title says, I'm curious if they ever named or revisited this Human civilization in the later parts of the timeline in any way? It seems like too good of an opportunity to not revisit it at some point.

My searches did not reveal any answer, so thought I'd ask my fellow trek nerds.

There's definitely nothing in STO, despite the dev teams absolutely loving deep cuts.

Which seems crazy, because with the Delta Quadrant being as accessible as it is in STO, it seems like making contact with a Human colony of over 100k people would be a priority.

Agreed. I would have loved to have that kind of callback to the story.

They should do a Cerritos like crossover and make the character help the Cerritos on a long list of backlogged second contact missions, including this one.

Yeah, the Delta arc is pretty laser-focused on the Vaadwaur, but it's a little surprising they didn't do a payroll or something.
