[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] My problems: 3 dimensionality lacking. The Galaxy is thikc enough for a lot of planets (& empires!) to be on top of each other. the span.. on both sides of the so called Federation space are planets visited by the Enterprrise-no suffix. Are we to believe no exploring was done between TOS and TNG? and that the 1701 could span the whole of the current Federation (which is 8000 LY span and take 6 months for slower ships to get around)? Klingon-Romulan-Cardassian issue. I have thought of several solutions to this, but it is addressed quite poorly in this map. They need to have common borders in order for the Dominion war to make sense. People seem to only accept the Federation as a spheroid or cubic shape (basically 2D with imaginary depth). What if it is a torus, or helix or other inherently 3D shape. In this way, the Federation could span 8000 LY end to end, but still be shot through with nonaligned space. A phalanx of the Klingon empire could extend right through it to Cardassian space, which wraps around the top or bottom until it hits Romulan space. It would also explain how far-flung enemies could concievably get so close to coreworlds like Betazed & Earth.. The Federation has more than six sides if it is a more complex shape. [/QB][/QUOTE]
