What if all alternate earth’s in every relavent sci-fi franchise was located in unexplored space?

What if there was one area of space where the preservers created thousands of duplicates of Earth, including the Orville Earth, Firefly humans, Babylon 5 space, starship troopers, battle star galactica, and it was in a large corner of the Gamma quadrant?
What if all Crossovers similar to the above named were in the Star Trek universe located in the unexplored Gamma Quadrant?
(Besides being irl a royalty hell)
This idea does open the way to mega crossovers where Starfleet visits multiple Francises at once and also crossovers within this crossover with Babylon 5 meeting the Union of allied planets ect.

there is a hypothesis, slightly different from instead of the many-worlds postulations of multuple universes as has been depicted, that the universe is composed of innumerable, possibly infinite "hubble sphere" collections of galactic superclusters which any viewer within would think of as the universe, as it would be impossible due to the speed of light to view beyond. In each of those Hubble volumes, the cosmological principle writ large would lead to nearly identical formations, albeit if there were even minute changes, one could see, within the laws of the framework of the cosmos itself, infinite possibilities in infinite combinations.

But there'd be no way to know.
 
If our universe (not to mention the multi-verse) truly is infinite, there would have to be another Earth out there nearly identical to ours with someone nearly identical to you... Infinity is a tricky, tricky thing. But then there are the simulated universes (AKA "ancestor simulations.")

The argument works like this: We are most likely not real, but simulated ancestors living in a simulated universe. Assuming humanity survives another century, artificially intelligent computers are likely to abound, running simulated universes on every desktop as a background program for entertainment and research purposes. Given sufficient computing power (and there is no reason not to assume this), the ancestors in these simulations may well develop sufficient computers within their simulation to create an effective infinity of their own simulated universes. The ratio of simulated universes to the real one in which all these simulations are housed would effectively be infinity:1. This would mean that the chance that we are artificially intelligent agents in an ancestor simulation would be infinitely more likely than the chance that we are actual flesh and blood.

Picard acknowledged this possibility in the meta moment at the end of "Elementary, Dear Data."

But here's a noodle for you... Star Fleet finally reaches the Gamma Quadrant and there is no evidence of the Dominion or any of the other denizens found by (and regularly traded with) through the wormhole. Meaning that the wormhole doesn't actually lead to our Gamma Quadrant, but to one existing in another multi-verse. Whole new Gamma Quadrant to explore and not only that, but an entirely new Milky Way to explore by going through the wormhole and then navigating back to the Alpha Quadrant...

The Preservers aren't really into planet building. Their thing is transplanting endangered cultures to other worlds to preserve them. They don't do terraforming but they well set up asteroid deflectors.

Now the Magratheans, that sounds like a project they could get behind.
