The '''Dyson Sphere''' is a construct located somewhere in the [[Beta Quadrant]], a massive sphere that was one of the first examples matching the [[Human]] [[scientist]] [[Freeman]]'s postulation of a [[Dyson sphere]], a constructed world built around a star. The inner surface is approximately 1 [[AU]] from a central star, with the entire structure being a little more than 2 [[AU]] in diameter, with a very large surface area capable of supporting life.

For other uses, see Dyson sphere.
This article is about the Dyson Sphere discovered by Starfleet. You may be looking for the concept of a Dyson sphere.

The Dyson Sphere is a construct located somewhere in the Beta Quadrant, a massive sphere that was one of the first examples matching the Human scientist Freeman Dyson's postulation of a Dyson sphere, a constructed world built around a star. The inner surface is approximately 1 AU from a central star, with the entire structure being a little more than 2 AU in diameter, with a very large surface area capable of supporting life.

The USS Jenolen crashed on the surface of this Dyson Sphere in 2294. In 2369, the USS Enterprise-D discovered the Dyson Sphere and crash site. (TNG episode & novelization: Relics)

The Sphere was located in the Beta Quadrant. (DS9 reference: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual)
