memory alpha states seven's birthday to be 2344 and not 2350Why not correct Memory Alpha rather than go over it here? It's a wiki, you're supposed to change it when you find a mistake.
Star Trek Maps (1980)
- Thread starter Darkwing
- Start date
"Star Trek Picard" aged up Seven of Nine to closer match Jeri Ryan's actual age at time of filming the first season and the dialogue reflected that change. Memory Alpha's entry on Seven of Nine was updated to reflect her new birth date.
That was from the unused prologue for ST VI, written by Denny Martin Flinn. He was able to salvage it as the opening for his Trek novel, "The Fearful Summons".
Doesn't matter, since their encounter with the Borg was unknown to the Federation for years thereafter anyway, so it wouldn't have any impact on "Q Who" or subsequent stories. Nor does it alter VGR's retcon that the Borg were vaguely known of as a galactic legend well before "Q Who" (which stands to reason given that the Federation encountered the El-Aurian refugees from the Borg in 2293 per Generations).
Nice to have an official figure of width there. If bits near Antares are included, it could be longer, though.
Picard's statement can be interpreted in two ways - 8000 ly is some equivalent to square diametre or volume, or the worlds of the Federation in some way span 8000 ly.
If it is the former, then the Federation could be feasibly 89.44 plus ly wide, but that would definitely be on the small side. And a cubic volume of only 89.43 sectors.
And even Star Trek Maps assumes higher than that, substantially. So it's probable to assume a sort of long daisy chain arrangement, in the circumstances.
It also does not sit well with being only '150 members' of course.
Surely her actual age is moot considering she was accelerated in a maturation chamber and had been a Borg drone for ages
