| Gallicite1 |
A very rare substance, Gallicite can be used to refit the warp coils of an intrepid class Starship; Voyager encountered a deposit of almost a kiloton of the material on Stardate 50537.2.1 The Nezu operated Gallicite mines on one of their planets.2 Gallicite deposits are also to be found on Vulcan in the region can release powerful energy discharges if metallic objects are brought near to them.3 |

| Genesis device4 |
Device developed by Dr. Carol Marcus in the 23rd century. The Genesis device was capable of capable of transforming matter from one form into another according to a pre-programmed pattern on a planetary scale; this allowed it to terraform a planetary surface in a matter of hours, or even to create planets out of nebula material. Unfortunately, the first major test of the device proved to be unstable.4 |

| Genetic engineering5 |
The modification of the genetic code of an organism.5 Genetic engineering is illegal in the Federation, or at least on Earth.6 |

| Gold7 |
A metallic element, gold was considered to be very valuable in many cultures, including 20th century Earth.8 Fort Knox in the US was widely known on the planet as a storage location for over fifty metric tons of Gold, valued at over nine trillion U.S. dollars. When the new world economy took shape in the late twenty second century the Gold became valueless and Fort Knox was turned into a museum. In 2365 some Ferengi attempted to steal the Gold from Fort Knox, though the attempt failed.9
Whilst Gold became worthless on Earth in the late 2100s, in 2266 it still retained some value amongst Humans on other Federation worlds, though Latinum crystals were worth thousands of times as much as the equivalent weight of Gold.10 The planet Janus IV was a major source of Gold once the miners were able to access it thanks to the assistance of the Hortas living on the planet.7
By the year 2364 the Ferengi still considered Gold to be valuable.11 In 2366 Daimon Goss offered a quantity of Gold to the Barzan as part of his bid to gain control of their wormhole.12 However, by 2374 Gold had lost all value with the Ferengi and was considered worthless.13 It still found use, however, as the Ferengi took to using Gold to suspend the highly valuable liquid latinum. Such 'Gold-pressed Latinum' was a standard currency amongst the Ferengi, as well as being widely used by other cultures.13

| Gravimetric waves14 |
Effect associated with certain types of anomaly in the Delphic Expanse.14 |
Harbinger |
| Gravitic Calipers15 |
A tool used by the Federation in the 2260s. In 2265 Cervantes Quinn falsely claimed that his cargo included gravitic calipers.15 |

| Graviton Ellipse16 |
Type of spatial anomaly, the first encountered by Humanity. Graviton ellipses are extremely old, and tend to contain large numbers of objects which have been scooped up into them over billions of years.16 |
One Small Step |
| Graviton Relay17 |
Element of a Federation Starship. Graviton relays can make a small noise when a turbolift passes by them; Ensign Gilmore found the sound distressing as it reminded her of an interspatial fissure opened.17 |
Equinox, Part 1 |
| Graviton stabiliser18 |
Device used aboard Federation starships. A ship could not function without a graviton stabiliser. In 2375 the Defiant's stabiliser failed, forcing Nog to engage in various trades to acquire a new one.18 |
Treachery, Faith, and the Great River |
| Gravity generator19 |
Device which creates artificial gravity within a spacecraft or station. Federation gravity generators are immensely reliable, often functioning even in the event of total power failure.19 |
