The '''Battle of Sector 001''' is a term often applied to the [[Borg]] incursion of [[2373]], in which a single [[Borg cube]] penetrated [[Federation]] space from the coreward [[Typhon Sector]] and fought a running battle to [[Earth]] in an attempt to [[assimilate]] the Federation capital. The cube was eventually destroyed in orbit of Earth thanks to the intervention of [[Federation Starfleet]] Captain [[Jean-Luc Picard]] of the {{USS|Enterprise|NCC-1701-E|-E}}; surprisingly, the cube launched a [[Borg sphere]] that then attempted to alter history by preventing [[first contact]] between [[Human]]s and [[Vulcan]]s in [[2063]], but this too was thwarted by Picard and his crew. ({{m|TNG|Star Trek: First Contact}})

During the Battle of Sector 001, several ships were targeted for assimilation by the cube. At least one of them was the {{USS|Budapest|NCC-64923}}, whose captain and several of whose bridge crew members were assimilated. Lt. [[Samaritan Bowers]] was amongst the security forces called upon to fight the invading Borg drones through the use of the [[TR-116]].
