In the fictional Star Trek, it is Spock's homeworld and the homeworld of all Vulcans. In the alternate reality (the new Star Trek movie) Vulcan is destroyed. In reality, there was once believed to be a planet very close to the Sun, with an orbit smaller even than Mercury's. It's was named Vulcan but never observed. Einstein's theories showed that there was no need to assume a planet there.
