Where exactly is the Denorias belt in relation to DS9? In "Emissary", we learn that the wormhole and all the occurance of unusual sightings over the centuries are IN the Denorias Belt. Odo was also found IN the Denorias Belt.

But in "Explorers", Sisko says that he and Jake will be sailing TOWARD the Denorias Belt in their solar ship.

Am I missing something? Could the station be positioned just outside the Denorias Belt? It seems like it's only several hundred kilometers away from the wormhole though, which is evidently inside the Belt.

Any thoughts?

I have always wondered what the belt was made of. Asteroids? Radiation?

In the "Making of DS9" book, it says that it was originally an asteroid belt, but changed to a "charged plasma field." I guess that's supposed to be all the pretty colors we see often.

Yeah, all the purples and blues and stuff around the station is the Denorias Belt.

They did a great job in that last pull back shot of the station in showing the Belt behind the station. I thought that was beautiful.

I know that in the DS9 tech man, it shows a graphic of the Bajoran star system. I know it shows two comets, the one from the opening credits and presumably the one that came through the wormhole. Does it show the Belt anywhere?
