(“Soldiers of the Empire” [DS9]). For example, in a simulated sword fight, the safety protocol might cause a holographic character’s sword to disappear a few milliseconds before the sword penetrated the body of a participant. Hirogen hunters who commandeered the Starship Voyager and its holodecks in late 2374 operated a number of battle simulations with the safety protocols off, believing that to do otherwise would remove the sense of the hunt. (“The Killing Game, Part I” [VGR]). B’Elanna Torres, suffering from severe depression in early 2375 after learning of the death of nearly all her former Maquis associates, began running dangerous holodeck programs such as orbital skydiving with the safety protocols off. (“Extreme Risk” [VGR]).

Future Voyager crew members B’Elanna Torres and Chakotay were also members of the same group. (“Extreme Risk” [VGR]).
~1:[2,#B]@1Saint Moritz@2Town in southeastern Switzerland located on planet Earth. Saint Moritz was site of the Winter Olympics games in 1928 and 1948. In 2374, Thomas Paris suggested he and B’Elanna Torres create a snow-skiing program located at Saint Moritz, but Torres said she preferred something a little warmer. (“Waking Moments” [VGR]).
~1:[2,#B],8:[1,#B],30:[2,#B],57:[2,#B],70:[22,#I],95:[2,#I]@1Sainte Claire@2City in the nation-state of France on planet Earth. During that planet’s second world war of the 20th century, Sainte Claire was occupied by the army of Nazi Germany. An underground resistance organization fought against the Nazi occupation, later working with American troops to free the city. Sainte Claire was the setting of the French Resistance holodeck simulation program. (“The Killing Game, Parts I and II” [VGR]). The streets of Sainte Claire were filmed on the “European street” backlot at Universal Studios in Los Angeles, suitably re-dressed by the Star Trek: Voyager art department.
~1:[1,#B]@1Samoa@2Group of islands in the central Pacific Ocean on planet Earth. In 2374 when Thomas Paris suggested creating a holodeck skiing program, B’Elanna Torres requested a warmer location such as Samoa or Fiji. (“Waking Moments” [VGR]).

~1:[2,#B],45:[3,#B],50:[69,#I],119:[1,#B],138:[1,#I]@1Saurian brandy@2Potent liqueur. Saurian brandy was imbibed in moderation, although the aggressive half of James Kirk demanded a bottle of the stuff after Kirk’s duplication by a transporter malfunction in 2266. (“The Enemy Within” [TOS]). Picard once traded an old bottle for a Gorlan prayer stick. (“Bloodlines” [TNG]). Saurian brandy was also enjoyed in “The Man Trap” (TOS), “The Conscience of the King” (TOS), “Journey to Babel” (TOS), and “Requiem for Methuselah” (TOS),”The Wire” (DS9), and “Prophet Motive” (DS9). Saurian brandy was stored in distinctive amber bottles with curved necks, originally made as commemorative whiskey bottles by the Dickel company of Tennessee. Replicas of these original bottles were sometimes seen behind Quark’s bar in Deep Space 9.
Addendum: Alcoholic beverage. While at Starbase 375 in early 2374, Nog obtained some to help the crew of the Defiant celebrate the completion of a combat mission against the Dominion. (“Behind the Lines” [DS9]). Saurian brandy was Benjamin Sisko’s favorite drink. (“Treachery, Faith, and the Great River” [DS9]).

Commander Chakotay, questioning Captain Janeway’s decision to enter into a truce with the Borg in late 2373, warned that the Borg might be like an Earth scorpion, unable to change its basic predatory nature, even when logic might dictate otherwise. (“Scorpion, Part I” [VGR]). Captain Janeway used “scorpion” as a code word to warn Chakotay of an attempt by Seven of Nine to take over the Voyager on stardate 51003.7. (“Scorpion, Part II” [VGR]).
~1:[1,#B],34:[3,#B],41:[1,#B]@1Scotch@2Whiskey made on Earth in Scotland from malted barley and having a rather smoky flavor. Doctor Bashir ordered a Scotch without ice in 2372, shortly after he and Miles O’Brien completed their Battle of Britain holosuite simulation. (“Homefront” [DS9]).
Addendum: Alcoholic beverage. Miles O’Brien preferred single malt scotch that had made in the Scottish highlands on Earth. (“Change of Heart” [DS9]). O’Brien even used scotch as a flavoring in specially made chewing gum that he shared with Julian Bashir during a baseball game in 2375. (“Take Me Out to the Holosuite” [DS9]).

Established under the Starfleet charter, Section 31 was responsible for searching out and identifying extraordinary dangers to the Federation. Section 31 was also responsible for dealing with such threats, and did so quietly, often employing extralegal techniques. Starfleet Section 31 was in many ways similar to the Romulan Tal Shiar or the Cardassian Obsidian Order. In 2374, Section 31 operatives invited Dr. Julian Bashir to join the agency. (“Inquisition” [DS9]). Section 31 was responsible for developing and unleashing a deadly biological weapon against the Founders of the Dominion. (“When it Rains” [DS9]). This deliberate attempt at genocide nearly succeeded until Dr. Julian Bashir discovered a cure to the virus by forcibly invading the mind of Sloan. (“Extreme Measures” [DS9]).

A typical sector in Federation space will contain about 6 to 10 star systems, although sectors toward the galactic core will often contain many more. The Milky Way Galaxy is divided into hundreds of thousands of sectors, grouped into four quadrants. Sectors are usually numbered, although in common usage they are often named for a major star or planet located in that sector. The numbering system for sectors had been inconsistently used (and sometimes interchanged with quadrants) during the show, especially in its early days. We assume that some sectors may retain older designations from previous mapping systems, much as present-day astronomers still use NGC and Messier catalog numbers.
Sector 001. Region that includes the G2-type star known as Sol and the nine planets in its system, including Earth. Sector 001 was the destination of the invading Borg ship in 2366. (“The Best of Both Worlds, Parts I and II” [TNG]). The original and motion picture Enterprise returned to Sector 001 in “Tomorrow Is Yesterday” (TOS), Star Trek I, Star Trek III, Star Trek IV, Star Trek V, and Star Trek VI, although the term “Sector 001” was not invented until “The Best of Both Worlds” (TNG). The Enterprise -D also returned to Sector 001 in “Conspiracy” (TNG), “Family” (TNG), “The First Duty” (TNG), and “Time’s Arrow, Part I” (TNG). The original Enterprise was there in “Tomorow is Yesterday” (TOS) and the first three Star Trek movies. The Enterprise -A was there in Star Trek IV, V, and VI.
Sector 3-0. Region of space near the Romulan Neutral Zone. Two Federation outposts were destroyed there in late 2364 by an unknown agency later believed to be the Borg. (“The Neutral Zone” [TNG]).
Sector 3-1. Located near the Romulan Neutral Zone. Communications were lost with Federation starbases in this sector on stardate 41903.2 (late 2364). It was later believed that this was due to Borg activity in the area. (“The Neutral Zone” [TNG]).
Sector 23. Stellar area near the Romulan Neutral Zone, the location of Starbase 173. (“The Measure of a Man” [TNG]).
Sector 39J. Region where the Gamma 7A System was destroyed by a spaceborne amoeba creature in 2268. The U.S.S. Intrepid was also lost in Sector 39J, another victim of the amoeba. (“The Immunity Syndrome” [TOS]).
Sector 401. Region of space where the runabout Rio Grande was sighted by the Romulan vessel Gasko shortly after stardate 47573. (“Paradise” [DS9]).
Sector 1385. Volume of space in the Alpha Quadrant that contained no known shipping lanes. Romulan scientist Telek R’Mor was on a research mission in sector 1385 in the year 2351 when he discovered a micro-wormhole leading to the Delta Quadrant. (“Eye of the Needle” [VGR]).
Sector 1607. Location where the U.S.S. Pegasus was lost in 2358. The Enterprise -D was assigned to rendezvous with the Starship Crazy Horse in this sector in 2370. (“The Pegasus” [TNG]).
Sector 2520. Stellar region located near the Klingon-Federation border. Lieutenant Aquiel Uhnari, escaping from Relay Station 47 aboard a shuttlecraft in 2369, was captured as her ship approached that sector. (“Aquiel” [TNG]).
Sector 19658. Uninhabited region outside of Federation space. (In an alternate quantum reality visited by Worf in 2370, the Argus Array had be redirected to relay its visual information to this sector.) (“Parallels” [TNG]).
Sector 21305. An area of space where the Enterprise -D conducted a surveying mission in 2368. (“Ensign Ro” [TNG]).
Sector 21503. Federation space near the Cardassian border. The Enterprise -D conducted a mapping survey there in 2367. (“The Wounded” [TNG]).
Sector 21505. Stellar region located in Cardassian space. A Cardassian science station destroyed by the Starship Phoenix was in this region. (“The Wounded” [TNG]).
Sector 21947. Area of space considered to be Talarian territory. The Enterprise -D ventured into this sector in response to a distress call from a damaged Talarian observation craft in 2367. (“Suddenly Human” [TNG]).
Sector 37628. Stellar region. The Enterprise -D was scheduled to survey this sector on stardate 45587. The mission was delayed due to the accident involving the U.S.S. Denver. (“Ethics” [TNG]).
Addendum:
Sector 441. Stellar region in Federation space containing the Briar Patch and the Ba’ku planet. (Star Trek: Insurrection).
Sector 507. Region of space containing the Pelosa system. In 2375, the Dominion established a new ketracel-white storage facility in the Pelosa system. (“Treachery, Faith, and the Great River” [DS9]).

Both the password and the user’s voiceprint were used to confirm the user’s identity. Security access codes were changed occasionally. Picard’s security code as of stardate 42494 was “Omicron-omicron-alpha-yellow-daystar-2-7.” (“Unnatural Selection” [TNG]). Later, it was “Picard-delta-5” (“Chain of Command, Part I” [TNG]), and “Picard Gamma 6-0-7-3” (“Starship Mine” [TNG]), then “Picard 4-7-alpha-tango.” (Star Trek: First Contact).

A field of self-replicating mines was extremely difficult to deactivate because any mines that were destroyed would immediately be replaced by duplicates. Starfleet personnel used self-replicating mines to blockade the Bajoran wormhole against a feared Dominion invasion in late 2373. (“Call to Arms” [DS9]). The mines were extremely effective at preventing further Dominion incursions into the Alpha Quadrant, although the Dominion already had substantial assets deployed in Cardassian space. Unfortunately, Cardassian technicians were able to develop a means of using antigraviton beams to render the mines’ replicators ineffective. (“Behind the Lines” [DS9]). The minefield nevertheless remained operational long enough to delay a massive Dominion incursion, allowing Starfleet forces to retake Deep Space 9. (“Sacrifice of Angels” [DS9]). Emmy Award-nominated Star Trek: Deep Space Nine set decorator Laura Richarz used large plastic drums originally sold as garden composters as the basis for Starfleet’s self-replicating mines.

Cardassian agent who was surgically altered to appear Bajoran, then assigned to infiltrate the Maquis terrorist group. (“State of Flux” [VGR]). Accepted as a member of the Maquis, Seska joined the crew of the Starship Voyager after her Maquis vessel was destroyed in the Delta Quadrant in 2371. Aboard the Voyager, she worked as an engineering officer. Seska and Chakotay had once been lovers. (“Parallax” [VGR]). Her role as a Cardassian agent was discovered on stardate 48658, when she was caught selling Federation replicator technology to the Kazon-Nistrim sect. (“State of Flux” [VGR]). Seska fled to the Nistrim, where she sought the assistance of Jal Culluh. She helped Culluh in a bold, but unsuccessful attempt to steal a transporter module from the Starship Voyager. Seska continued to use her past relationship with Chakotay in an effort to undermine his dealings with the Nistrim, informing him that she had used Chakotay’s DNA to artificially impregnate herself. (“Maneuvers” [VGR]). She also used her pregnancy to manipulate Culluh, also telling him that the child was his. (“Alliances” [VGR]). She instructed Voyager crew member Michael Jonas to sabotage the ship’s warp systems. (“Lifesigns” [VGR]). Late in 2372, Seska gave birth to a son, which was actually fathered by Culluh, not Chakotay as she had intended. Seska was killed after she helped Nistrim forces capture the Starship Voyager, when Voyager crew members retook their ship. Culluh subsequently took custody of his child. (“Basics, Parts I and II” [VGR]). Seska said in “Prime Factors” (VGR) that she had a brother, but she may have been lying. Seska was first seen in “Parallax” (VGR). She also appeared in “Phage” (VGR), “Emanations” (VGR), and “Maneuvers” (VGR). Martha Hackett previously portrayed Subcommander T’Rul in “The Search, Parts I and II” (DS9).
Addendum: Undercover Cardassian operative who became a member of the Voyager crew. In 2371, shortly before leaving the ship, Seska discovered the existence of Insurrection Alpha, a holodeck training program. Seska rewrote the scenario to act as a trap to anyone who reopened the program’s narrative parameters file. On stardate 50953.4, Tuvok and Tom Paris were ensnared in Seska’s modified version of Insurrection Alpha until Captain Janeway was successful in reprogramming portions of the scenario. (“Worse Case Scenario” [VGR]).
~1:[2,#B],19:[1,#B],36:[3,#B],40:[1,#I],41:[1,#BI],99:[1,#B]@1Setlik III@2Planet. Site of a Federation outpost that was the victim of a sneak attack during the Cardassian war. Nearly one hundred civilians were killed in the incident, including the wife and children of Captain Benjamin Maxwell. The Starship Rutledge, commanded by Maxwell, arrived at Setlik III the morning after the attack and was only able to save a few civilians in an outlying area. Years later, the Cardassians admitted the raid was a mistake, that they had incorrectly believed the civilian outpost was a staging place for a massive Federation attack. (“The Wounded” [TNG], “Emissary” [DS9]).
Addendum: Planet. While at Setlik III in 2347, Miles O’Brien led two dozen men against the Barrica encampment, driving out an entire Cardassian regiment. (“Empok Nor” [DS9]).

Borg drone who left the collective and joined the crew of the Federation Starship Voyager in early 2374. (“Scorpion, Part II” [VGR]). Seven of Nine, who was Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero One, was born a human female named Annika Hansen in 2348 at the Tendara colony on stardate 25479. Annika’s parents, Erin Hansen and Magnus Hansen, were noted scientists who were last seen in the Omega Sector in 2356, having departed from station Deep Space 4 aboard the science vessel Raven on an expedition to the Delta Quadrant. The Raven encountered a Borg ship in B’omar space and crashed on a Class-M moon. Annika’s parents were presumed killed or assimilated by the Borg in the incident, and Annika was assimilated at the age of six. (“The Raven” [VGR]). Seven of Nine was assigned as Borg liaison to Starfleet captain Kathryn Janeway in early 2374 when the collective formed an uneasy alliance with Janeway to defeat Species 8472. Seven was the only drone from her cube to survive the encounter that saw her ship destroyed when it attempted to assimilate Voyager. (“Scorpion, Part II” [VGR]). Thus separated from the collective, Seven’s human physiology reasserted itself, and Voyager personnel removed most of Seven’s Borg implants to increase her chances of survival. The use of dermaplastic grafts and follicle stimulation even gave her a nearly normal human appearance. (“The Gift” [VGR]). Having spent most of her life as a Borg drone, Seven of Nine did not at first consider herself to be human, objecting strongly to losing her Borg identity against her will. Her Voyager shipmates, including Captain Janeway, were nevertheless committed to helping her make what proved to be a difficult return to human society and to the alien concept of freedom. (“The Raven” [VGR]). At one point, she disobeyed a direct order from Janeway, believing disobedience to be in the best interests of the ship and crew. Seven found it frustrating to be punished for this action, after having been encouraged to exert her individuality. (“Prey” [VGR]). Human emotions such as anger and remorse also proved uncomfortable for her, as when she incorrectly believed herself to have been attacked by an Entharan weapons dealer on stardate 51658. (“Retrospect” [VGR]). Nevertheless, by late 2374, she found the thought of being reassimilated by the Borg collective to be unappealing. (“Hope and Fear” [VGR]). Seven did not lose all of her Borg values, however. She shared the Borg sense of wonder at the discovery of Omega molecules on stardate51781. (“The Omega Directive” [VGR]). In early 2375, she found herself serving as a role model to a new Borg drone, designated One. Seven was successful in communicating her newfound personal values to One, including the sense of pride in individuality; she was saddened when One died. (“Drone” [VGR]). Seven of Nine’s first appearance was in “Scorpion, Part II” (VGR) when Jeri Ryan joined the Voyager cast at the beginning of the show’s fourth season.
~1:[2,#B],4:[1,#B],17:[1,#B]@1Seventh Fleet@2Federation Starfleet task force. In early 2374 the Seventh Fleet of the Federation engaged Dominion forces at the Tyra system. Of the 112 ships originally in the Seventh Fleet, only 14 survived the encounter at the Tyra system. (“A Time to Stand” [DS9], “Inquisition” [DS9]). The Seventh Fleet suffered further losses while assigned to protect Vulcan by intercepting Dominion forces at the Tibor Nebula. Nearly half of the fleet’s remaining forces were lost en route at Sybaron. (“The Reckoning” [DS9]).
