So after a few years of starting up new threads with various questions relating to my Star Trek Timeline (Here's Part 1, going up to the 23rd Century, and here's Part 2, covering the 24th Century shows), I figured I'd just start a dedicated thread to it. This way I can have everything in once place, and I can post my questions in a single thread.
So here's my inaugural question, one that's been stumping me for a few weeks. I'm hoping people here can help me brainstorm: What should I title my sections covering Deep Space Nine and Voyager?
I put the TOS era under THE FIVE-YEAR MISSION and the TNG era under THE CONTINUING MISSION. Those were both easy enough, since I was drawing from the spoken word intros of each show, but since neither DS9 nor VOY have any spoken word intros, nothing is immediately suggesting itself to me.
What I want is a short phrase that makes it obvious which series I'm covering without using the title of the show itself. So under those parameters, what would you call the seven year era where Ben Sisko is commanding Deep Space Nine, or where Voyager is traveling home through the Delta Quadrant? THE EMISSARY ARRIVES seems a bit pretentious, and LOST IN THE DELTA QUADRANT is not especially accurate. Does anybody have any better suggestions?
And, if you have any questions or suggestions concerning my ST Timeline, I'd love to hear 'em! I'd like to keep this thread going beyond just these initial questions.
