Cultural notes:

Praxis {pIraqSIS} is described as "a Klingon moon"; its destruction is in 2293 near enough to the Homeworld to precipitate the eventual decay of Kronos' ozone layer. The novel Sarek and the CD game Klingon Honor Guard place Praxis (or its remnants) in orbit around Qo'noS. It's unknown whether Qo'noS has any other moons, although the ST6 reference implies the existence of at least one other.
