Barzan Wormhole location in Alpha Quadrant

Good day!

I have a question: Where is the Barzan Wormhole located in the Alpha Quadrant?

I'm trying to locate it's position (I know it's in the Barzan System) but where is in the Barzan Sytem?

I'm using Star Trek Charts (Geoffrey Mandel) as a reference.

Is it "East" of the Ferengi Aliance? Near the Cardassian DMZ? In the Badlands?

Thanks!
 
Sadly, "The Price" appears to be one of the episodes neglected in Star Charts. Not only is the Barzan system not shown, neither is Caldonia or any of the other worlds mentioned as participating in negotiations. We still have no real idea where Barzan is, and none of the novels have given suggestions either.

It's odd, given that thanks to "False Profits" the wormhole's temporary terminus in the Delta Quadrant is shown on the charts.

Look at the pervious episodes to see the last location we know the Enterprise Dee to have been, then look at the very next place after The Price we knew it was. If these two places are any where close to each other, odds are the Barzan System is close by as well.

Good move :). Okay then, before Barzan they were at Galorndon Core (Neutral Zone), and afterwards an outpost near to Acamar before moving on to Acamar itself and the Hromi Cluster soon afterwards. So Barzan might well be somewhere around the Paulson Nebula.

Thank for the Info but Paulson Nebula is in the Northern part of the Beta Quadrant and I know (using the guide mentionned above) that the Barzan Wormhole is located South West of the Tholian Assembly, next to Thalos VII or Angel one.

My guess would be that the Barzan Wormhole in the Alpha quadrant would be close to Cardassian space as in the DS9 novel A Stitch in Time, Cardassians had suspected the existence of the wormhole nearly a decade before it was discovered and Elim Garak studied it while he was at the Bamarren Institute for State Intelligence.
 
^Watch False Profits. The Alpha Quadrant Terminus ceased to stay in the Barzan system but zips all over the Alpha quadrant, just as the other end zips all over Gamma and Delta Quadrants. It's pretty hard to put them on a map, don't you think? ;)
