The Delta Quadrant is one of the four quadrants of the Milky Way Galaxy, and is home to many alien races and cultures, most notably the Borg Collective. (TNG episode: "The Price"; Star Trek: Voyager)

The Delta Quadrant comprises one quarter of the galaxy, with major extensions of several spiral arms making up its environs, including major portions of the 3 KPC, Norma and Crux Arms, as well as trailing sections of the Carina and Orion Arms and a small portion of the base of the Sagittarius Arm. (ST reference: Star Charts)

HistoryEdit

The Delta Quadrant represented an incredibly remote frontier to the Humans and other Federation races and cultures in the 23rd and 24th centuries. The romance of this concept led to a bar named after the Delta Quadrant in an alternate reality of the 2250s. (TOS - Starfleet Academy novel: The Delta Anomaly)

The first Humans to explore the Delta Quadrant were the Hansen family in 2354, when they followed a Borg cube through a transwarp conduit. Unfortunately, Magnus and Erin Hansen could not bring back any data on the unexplored region, as they were assimilated in 2356. (VOY episode: "The Raven")

An expedition to explore the far side of the Barzan wormhole led a shuttlecraft commanded by Lieutenant Commanders Data and Geordi La Forge led them to the Delta Quadrant. However, the wormhole was expected to lead to the Gamma Quadrant and was found to be unstable. The two officers managed to return safely. (TNG episode: "The Price"; VOY episode: "False Profits")

In 2371, the Federation starship USS Voyager was catapulted to the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker, a representative of the Nacene. After becoming stranded, Voyager spent seven years travelling through the Delta Quadrant, before returning to the Alpha Quadrant in 2377. (VOY episode & novelization: Caretaker)

Due to limited expeditions into the distant quadrant, the Federation knew very little about it until 2374, when the Voyager made contact with Starfleet. Since Voyager's return in 2377, the Federation's knowledge of the Delta Quadrant has increased considerably. (VOY episode: "Message in a Bottle"; VOY episode & novelization: Endgame)

USS Voyager was fitted with a quantum slipstream drive and assigned to Project Full Circle, a Starfleet expeditionary force sent to explore the Delta Quadrant. (VOY novel: Full Circle)

In the late 26th century, when Prefect Tamar of the Kelvan Armada arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy to check on Rojan's advanced team, he expected them to have seized control of the most of the galaxy, and be advancing into the Delta Quadrant after 300 years. (TOS - Strange New Worlds 9 short story: "Gone Native")
