  • Binary system consisting of black hole orbiting a star
  • Black hole draws in stellar atmosphere, generating x-ray radiation, near-luminal jets of subatomic particles
  • Intake of higher-density chunks of matter results in radiation surge that can endanger life across light years (TOS: "Galileo Seven"; TOS Novel: The Captain's Oath)
    • Subspace topology around gravity well of microquasar can result in radiation tunneling into subspace, propagating at superluminal speeds and impacting nearby systems within days (TOS: "The Galileo Seven"; TOS Novel: The Captain's Oath)
      • Starfleet vessels charged with inspection of all encountered microquasar phenomena as a result following Murasaki 274 incident, 2265 (TOS: "The Galileo Seven"; TOS Novel: The Captain's Oath)
  • General properties
