TREK TRIVIA:

Qu'Vat Colony was the site of a genetics research facility in the 22nd century where Dr Antaak was attempting to create Klingon Augments. Fleet Admiral Krell threatened to wipe out the colony after Antaak's team produced a highly contagious fatal viral plague. (ENT "Affliction" & ENT "Divergence")
