What's that diagonal line doing there? It seems to connect with that curved line which I suspect is Voager's trajectory, but it isn't labeled.

"I think this reason why girls don't do well on multiple choice tests goes all the way back to the Bible, all the way back to Genesis, Adam and Eve. God said, 'All right, Eve, multiple choice or multiple orgasms, what's it going to be?' We all know what was chosen" - Rush Limbaugh, Feb. 23, 1994.

As for Cardassian space, maybe at its peak. But now? Probably just their own solar system.

look it was just a quick map.

All you should have gotten from it.

1. It was an attempt at a look at the Galaxy from an oblique/3d angle.
2. So the Cardassian territory - might not be very 'wide' but could be more 'deep' etc. etc. same with all the others.
3. To show how we can have the Klingons and Romulans and existing so intertwined, having them still interact with the Cardassians on the 'otherside' of the Federation - that their space is not a solid sphere - its different star systems that probably all intermingle with each other - stretching out here and there...
4. Just admire it.

P.S. Yeah, Cardie space is probably pretty small now... its from probably around DS9 season 3. When everything was pretty status quo - for a while.

P.P.S. I did this in about 10 minutes mind you.

P.P.P.S. Can't anyone see the divisions between quadrants... and even a vertical axis at the centre of the galaxy!?!

Homer: I'm gonna miss Springfield. This town's been awfully good to us.
Bart: No, it hasn't, Dad. That's why we're leaving.
Homer: Oh, yeah. [pokes his head out the window] So long, Stinktown!

Looks a lot better al of a sudden.

BTW, Is anything canon known about the placements of the Romulans and Klingons relative to eachother? I mean, most maps show the Ks and the Rs just the other way around (Rommies north of Klingons). I have to say this (and with 'this' I mean the above map) makes more sense (late FC with Klingons, if we disregard ENT)

Here's another interpretation of a galactic map, although i only created it to show my envisioning of Fed / card / Rom / Kli spatial relations.

(it's quite a large print size image, may take a min to d/l)

I know there are things wrong with it:

1. Ktaria is known to be called Ktaris.
2. Romulan space will 'probably' encompass a little of the Alpha Quadrant although there are Beta natives.
3. This possibly goes for the Klingons too.
4. Ceratin star system locations are entirely imagined, and may bear little resemblance to where others would've placed them. But i@ve tried to work as logically as possible.
