"From the earliest days of explorations, there has always been one tried-and-true way to navigate through uncharted reaches and one to find the way home -- the stars. Ancient mariners prized their star charts, knowing that they could guide them safely into a friendly port or lead them to the reaches of the mysterious East. Modes of transportation have changes but the stars are still our constant. When man took his first step into space armed with the very latest in computers, he took with him the same tool for reading the stars that the men who sailed under canvas carried.

When humans launched the first ship designed for long-range missions into the deep waters of interstellar space, the Vulcan High Command provided their star charts for the Enterprise. But Jonathan Archer was not content with relying on the known. Although he used the Vulcan charts, he also added to them, and greatly expanded Starfleet's knowledge of the galaxy. Every generation of starship captain that followed has built on Archer's first steps.

Follow the course set by Archer, Kirk, Picard, Sisko, and Janeway. Relive their extraordinary adventures as you find here, for the first time, the star maps that chart the routes these famous explorers took."

Alpha Quadrant

"That the central meridian dividing the Milky Way Galaxy falls through Earth's solar systemis just a conceit of the mapmaker's art; it could as easily have been drown through the homeworlds of any of the great powers that make up the Alpha Quadrant, including the Cardassian Union, the Ferengi Alliance, the Tholian Assembly, the Breen Confederacy, the Talarians, or the Tzenkethi.

Ancient astonomers on Bajor were convinced that B'hava'el itself was the centar of the galaxy. Today, the well-explored region along the Alpha - Beta quadrant border continues to be dominated by the United Federation of Planets, with its diverse cultures and stellar landmarks. But perhaps the most unique landmark in the quadrant is the Bajoran Wormhole, a stable passageway that extends some 70,000 light-years to the far side of the Gamma Quadrant."

Beta Quadrant

"While the United Federation of Planets and even Earth's solar system spill over the border between the Alpha and Beta Quadrant, the two superpower most often associated with the region are the Klingon Empire and the Romulan Star Empire. Lesser-known but equally influentional residents include the Gorn Hegemony and the reclusive Metrons, while 90% of the quadrant remains unexplored.

Beta Quadrant has served as the battleground for many great conflict's during past few centuries, most recently in 2367 and 2373, when the Borg attempted to invade Earth. But it has also been the site of the historic Organian Peace and Khitomer Accords between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, as well as the Treaty of Algeron with the Romulan Star Empire."

Gamma Quadrant

"If not for a chence discovery, the history of the Gamma Quadrant might have been very different. Certainly, on one could have foreseen the existence of a stable wormhole near Bajor that offered a 70,000 light-year shortcut to the Idran system in the Gamma Quadrant, or that the voyages of exploration that followed would provoke the xenophobic Founders into one of the bloodiest conflicts of the modern era.

Established two millenia ago, the Dominion controled hundreds and perhaps even thousands of star system at its height, governing thorough Vorta inter mediaries and enforsing its policies with genetically engineered Jem'Hadar soldiers. While the curent status of the Founders remains unclear, it is hoped__that with the conclusion of hostilities in 2375, peaceful missions of exploration will once again be welcome in this largely unexploration quadrant."

Delta Quadrant

"Aside from early attempts like the Friedship One probe, the Delta Quadrant has remained almost completly__unexplored, all the more soon after it was found to be the home of the Borg Collective. Of course, that was before a mysterious entity known as the Caretaker transpoted a series of starships some 70,000 light-years to the far side of the Milky Way in early 2371.

Durind its seven-year odyssey of exploration, the U.S.S. Voyager visited more worlds and made more first contacts then any other vessel: the Ocampa, Talaxians, Kazon, Vidiians, Herogen, Malon, Hierarchy, and Spicies 8472, to name just a few. Already plans are underway for deep-space missions to follow in Voyager's footsteps, opening up one of the galaxy's final frontiers."

In the book "Star Trek Star Charts: The Complete Atlas of Star Trek", it is shown just where is all of these worlds seen in series and movies are. But one thing the book lacked is a decent index, which is vital in order to find certain planets, and could save hours of map searching for planets that aren't there. And now here's a complete index of stars that are mentioned in the book:

Be VERY awesome to get all this in Celestia!

STAR TREK LIVES!!!
(look at my signature)

I've been trying to make some of these sytems but I don't yet know how to texture planets. So far all I have been able to do is use planet textures from other addons and celestia but as soon as I learn how to make my own I will change them.

P.S. can somebody please tell me the formula to determine how far to place an earth like world from a star based on it's luminosity.

Cool!!

Reiko,

The SolStation Website describes where to place livable planets. See http://www.solstation.com/habitable.htm

Wow, very nice. And very useful. I have an incomplete copy of that very book you have taken images out of. I never thought about using it for Celestia.

[Romulan Star Empire]
Romulus, Remus [BQ]___________(M|K) <- not 128 Tri!_________51.76 ly

Why not 128 Tri ?

128 Trianguli (also known as Ket-cheleb or Eisn) is a spectral class G9 white star and star system located among the stars visible from Earth in the constellation of Triangulum. This area contains the home planets of the Romulan Star Empire, Romulus and Remus, as well as the moons Pirek and Elvreng. The system has a secondary star which is known as Romulus B. (TOS novels: "My Enemy, My Ally", "The Romulan Way")

TNG novel "Intellivore" listed this system as "123 Trianguli".
Retrieved from "http://startrek.wikia.com/wiki/128_Trianguli"

Thanx
Tim

Why not 128 Tri ?

I'm not sure what you're asking.

Can you provide a non-fiction reference for the star id you mention?

As best I can tell, 128 Tri and its associated names all seem to be imaginary: Simbad doesn't recognize any of them and the names aren't in the book Star Names, Their Lore and Meaning by Richard Allen, either. (It has lots of obscure star names not listed elsewhere.)

They're not mentioned in Burnham's Celestial Handbook, either.

p.s. and the only Web pages I can find which mention it are Star Trek sites.

p.p.s. I think the comment "M|K <-- not 128 Tri" just refers to the "fact" that 128 Tri is claimed by some sources to be a G class star, not M or K. *shrug* Since it's imaginary anyhow, you can make of it what you will.

This reply is too short for explain better how you can do to make a planet texture, and presuppose a 3d modeller. I do not know what to be the method do you prefer in doing this through commercial, shareware or freeware programs; whether 2d method or 3d. I've found this link for the 3d method:

http://www.starbase1.co.uk/tutring.htm

What is explained here can be done with the majority of 3d modellers each one with the own interfaces and ability, of course; commercial just as with freeware program. Once the sphere is finally texturized in a cylindrical UV projection with a procedural texture (a texture which is indipendent from the resolution) this texture can be exported as image format perfectly sized for Celestia. Turbolence, patchwork color for the planet's equatorial zone, etc., that is, what figure out a "planet", are 3d modeller operations: roughly speak, with shaders, "materials", displacements (bump map and normal map) reflectance, other texture, colors, etc subtly setting forth by the user for matching the needs. These operation are differents from that of the 2d photoretouch programs and the rest of 2d painter programs (they are used at the final stage, at least, for a "class touch").

Well, I see that my list of Star Trek planets is popular!

Yes WildMoon, you are right!

Hungry4info, you have an incomplete copy of the book?
Can you post any map?

fungun, I see you have questios about 128 Tri?

I wrote:
Romulus, Remus [BQ] (M|K) <- not 128 Tri! 51.76 ly

(M|K) is spectral class of this stars.
So, I wrote the figure of 51.76 ly. This just an rough number.

Wow, I guess I was too much interested in girls at the age of sixrteen . Some important cultural aspects (Star Treeeeek or whatever you were referring to ...) just passed by without being noticed.

What can I do? Now that I am 19, I feel most of my life is lying behind me...


Bye Fridger

Now that I am 19

Of course he does! Clearly, by his icon, Fridger is only a year old or so.....

This reply is too short for explain better how you can do to make a planet texture, and presuppose a 3d modeller. I do not know what to be the method do you prefer in doing this through commercial, shareware or freeware programs; whether 2d method or 3d. I've found this link for the 3d method:

http://www.starbase1.co.uk/tutring.htm

What is explained here can be done with the majority of 3d modellers each one with the own interfaces and ability, of course; commercial just as with freeware program. Once the sphere is finally texturized in a cylindrical UV projection with a procedural texture (a texture which is indipendent from the resolution) this texture can be exported as image format perfectly sized for Celestia. Turbolence, patchwork color for the planet's equatorial zone, etc., that is, what figure out a "planet", are 3d modeller operations: roughly speak, with shaders, "materials", displacements (bump map and normal map) reflectance, other texture, colors, etc subtly setting forth by the user for matching the needs. These operation are differents from that of the 2d photoretouch programs and the rest of 2d painter programs (they are used at the final stage, at least, for a "class touch").

Thank you that is very helpful. I have recently been using fractal world explorer to make textures but they do not look very realistic.

If you haven't already, you might want to visit the Space Art Web site at

There are quite a few tutorials there.

Yes WildMoon, you are right!

Hungry4info, you have an incomplete copy of the book?
Can you post any map?

Here are some form the 2002 book.





There is also an older book from 1980 with lots of maps including various space lanes. If you are interested in that let me know and I'll post them.

My version is the 2002 book also.
I think it's incomplete, but I'm not sure. I'll give a list of what's in it.
Page 8-11 - Description of the galaxy.
Page 12-19 - Expains quadrants, sectors, etc.
Page 20-21 - Explains types of stars and HR Diagram.
Page 22-29 - Explains types of planets.
Page 30-35 - Describes the Alpha Quadrant and inhabited planets.
Page 36-37 - Politial map of the Alpha Quadrant near Sol. (shows Breen Confederacy, Caradassian Union, Tholian Assembly, Ferengi Alliance, and UFP mostly).
Page 38-43 - Describes some important solar systems in the Alpha Quadrant (Sol, Talos Star Group, Deneb Kaitos, Bajor, Cardassia)
Page 44-45 - Describes Alpha Quadrant trade routes.
Page 46-47 - Shows map of UFP/Cardassian Union border, explains DMZ and such.
Page 48-49 - Describes Dominion War.
Page 50-55 - Describes Beta Quadrant and inhabited planets.
Page 56-57 - Map of Beta Quadrant near Sol. (Romulan Empire, Klingon Empire, Gorn Hegemony mostly)
Page 58-59 - Describes important Beta Quadrant systems (Vulcan, Rigel)
Page 60-61 - Route of Enterprise NX-01.
Page 62-63 - Beta Quadrant map of UFP/Klingon Empire border.
Page 64-65 - Map of Klingon Empire.
Page 66-67 - Map of Romulan Empire. (Reiko posted it)
Page 68-71 - Describes Gamma Quadrant and inhabited planets.
Page 72-73 - Map of Gamma Quadrant.
Page 74-75 - Map of Dominion Space.
Page 76-79 - Describes Delta Quadrant and inhabited planets.
Page 80-81 - Delta Quadrant political map.
Page 82-95 - Route of Voyager from insertion into Delta Quadrant until just before it finds the Borg Transwarp Hub.

The book fails to show the rest of the Voyager route. On the right edge of page 95, it shows "TO BORG SPACE (TRANSWARP HUB)" with an arrow pointing to where a next page SHOULD be. Yet, it doesn't exist. What follows is the four pages of the map that Reiko posted, along with a map key.

Between Trek Fighter's list, the Star Trek Star Chart book (which I see you have), the Memory Alpha Star Trek wiki, the Memory Beta Star Trek wiki, and "Places" at StarTrek.com, I have mapped 95 systems so far. Also thanks to JLL's NGC3132_EightBurstNebula_3D addon from the Motherload, I also have the Briar Patch and the Ba'Ku planet mapped and drawn in.
This is great fun
Thanks for Celestia !
