Beta Quadrant
From Starbase 900 Wiki
The Beta Quadrant was the common designation during the 24th century for one-quarter of the Milky Way Galaxy when viewed from a point of view perpendicular to the plane of the galaxy. It extended ninety degrees spinward of an imaginary line drawn from the center of the galaxy, the galactic core, passing at least near the Sol system.
The Klingon Empire and the Romulan Star Empire claimed territory in the Beta Quadrant in the 24th century.
The Yattho, a species known for their precognitive abilities, were native to the Beta Quadrant.
In 2293, the starship USS Excelsior, commanded by Captain Hikaru Sulu, completed a three-year exploratory voyage in the Beta Quadrant which included cataloging gaseous anomalies. After the Excelsior had returned to the Alpha Quadrant, they raced back to the Beta Quadrant to reach Khitomer in time to help the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-A.
In 2363, Captain Lisa Cusak and the crew of the USS Olympia began a seven-year exploration voyage in the Beta Quadrant. Following this mission, the Olympia crashed on a planet in the Rutharian sector en route back to Federation space. While escorting a convoy to the Vegan system in 2374, the crew of the USS Defiant made contact with Cusak in 2371 via a temporal anomaly.
In an alternate timeline, the USS Voyager used a quantum slipstream drive to cross the Delta and Beta Quadrants, before crashing on an Class L planet in the Takara sector, a few parsecs short of reaching the Alpha Quadrant. Also in this timeline, Starfleet Intelligence had salvaged a Borg temporal transmitter from the debris of a Borg cube in the Beta Quadrant.
A Borg ship, commandeered by liberated drones and Axum, was located in a remote sector of the Beta Quadrant patrolling the border of fluidic space.
When members of the Hierarchy captured Captain Kathryn Janeway and forced The Doctor to obtain Voyagers warp core for them, he impersonated Janeway and told Commander Chakotay a cover story involving a fictitious R'Kaal Imperium which supposedly controlled thousands of parsecs from here to the edge of the Beta Quadrant.
