Orion Arm

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

The Orion Arm is the region of the Milky Way Galaxy containing the bulk of the Federation, as well as most of the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, and other local political organizations. The Orion "spur" (or "local spur") is a minor arm which is an offshoot of the Sagittarius Arm. It is bisected by the Alpha Quadrant/Beta Quadrant border. (ST references: Star Fleet Technical Manual, Star Trek: Star Charts; TNG novel: Intellivore)

The graphic representation of the Orion Arm's place in the galaxy that was shown in Star Trek: Star Charts was seen in canon many times, as set artwork during the last three seasons of Star Trek: Voyager.
