Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library is an in-universe reference work by Larry Nemecek published in 2013 and updated in 2018. It contains ten poster-sized star charts of the galaxy, most showing the configuration of interstellar states as of 2386, with a few historical maps from the 4th century, the Earth-Romulan War and 2266.
Description[]
- The Starfleet Reference Library: Stellar Cartography collects together ten original, never-before-seen large-format maps of the Star Trek universe. Pulled from the cartography archives of Starfleet Academy, these beautifully reproduced maps provide a rare opportunity to view the expanse of Federation space (and beyond) through the multiple lenses of the Galaxy's key players.
- The maps include an ancient Vulcan map, a Klingon Empire map from the pre-Organian Peace Treaty era (in the native Klingon), an official Romulan government map of the Empire, a native Cardassian Union map from the Bajor occupation, along with Federation maps from the modern era. Housed in a handsome clamshell case and paired with a fully-illustrated reference book providing detailed information on planets, systems, and topography, this exclusive collection showcases the Star Trek universe like never before.
Introduction[]
- Drawn from the Federation Astronomy Library on Memory Alpha, these ten maps have been hand-selected by Starfleet historians and Memory Alpha curators for their importance in galactic history.
- Maps obtained from non-Federation sources have been translated and restored by Memory Alpha cartography archivists for this special collection.
- These star charts, battle maps, and records of bygone empires represent a multifaceted view of known space through both the Federation lens and that of our neighbors, allies, and even enemies.
