---------------------------------------------------------------------

The above is pulled from various alpha canon, beta canon, unused ideas, and a slight bit a head canon. But a hypothetical as to what the timeline might look like in the 32nd century Federation historical database.

Also, any interest in the same thing being done for 2201-2250, the Lost Era 2301 -2350, or for the 26th-29th centuries?
 
Really helpful information.

It would be really good if you could re-post it on your own blog or website or some other stable website and provide a link as this post will swiftly get buried on this bulletin board.

Thanks!! rbs

Ardana is said to be a Federation member in the Cloud Minders. Kirk even mentions having visited Stratos once. So I'm not sure what the significance of mentioning Kirk and Spock's visit is.
