On that map, looking back at the Picard map, there are two possibilities for the starbase whose name is cropped: Starbase 10 or Starbase 39-Sierra.

Fixed it for ya ...

 

[Nerys Myk]

Are all those names from episodes/movies? I don't recognize some of them.

Starbase 1 is still in the non-Federation-alligned Sol system?? That doesn't make a lot of sense

I'm guessing this is part of the big holomap from season 3?

 

[Lord Garth]

I'm sorry, but I just have to say it. A title like "The Examples" makes me feel like I'm back in Math Class.

Starbase 1 is probably close to a thousand years old at this point. It's a legacy name for a world/base that doesn't have to affiliate with Starfleet in anyway.

Wolf 359 should be way more closer to Earth compared to the other names...

 

[Lakenheath 72]

Other notes (working from the Picard chart):
Proxima, short for Proxima Centauri, should be closer to Earth then Wolf 359.

Memory Alpha and Arcturus are on the wrong side of Earth.

Argelius is from "Wolf in the Fold(TOS)."

Thank you! I think I saved the screencap in the wrong format, and this rectifies that mistake.

 

[DaveyNY]

I think Stamets has the map in motion when this screencap was pulled, so the position of everything is probably going to look off anyway.

Plus the angle we're looking at it is weird as well.

Also, the planet DRAYLAX is another "ENTERPRISE" reference.

Since Vulcan/Ni'Var is only 17 light-years from Earth that does help in attempting to measure Earth's distance from other Federation worlds like Andoria and Tellar.

 

[Lakenheath 72]

Andoria is in the Procyon system and Tellar is in the 61 Cygni system. Info from Picard chart.

FWIW, it never made any sense to me that the founding members of the Federation were so close together - yet the Federation was also supposed to cover approximately 1/4th of the Galaxy.

I mean, 1/4th of the Milky Way would include 25 billion stars.

When was this stated? I'm sure that wasn't true in 2161 or 2265. Makes sense that alliances would be formed in "local space" and expand outward.

 

[cooleddie74]

The Federation spread across 8,000 light-years as of 2373 and though likely bigger by later centuries I don't think would ever have occupied a full one-quarter of the entire galaxy.

 

[DaveyNY]

When has an empowered collective never overstated it's reach to impress?

yet the Federation was also supposed to cover approximately 1/4th of the Galaxy.

When was that ever stated?

 

[cooleddie74]

Could be fans mistaking the TNG Stellar Cartography map seen in episodes like "Conspiracy" as being proof that the Federation took up a huge chunk of the galaxy.
