Trek trivia:
In TOS galactic quadrants are subdivided into sectors.
"Think of it, as we sit here, in space above us the destiny of the galaxy will be decided for the next ten thousand years." (Kor, TOS "Errand of Mercy")
The Galactic Edge (Barrier) is a pinkish energy field of composed of negative energy. Contact with it transforms those few humans with a high ESP rating into mutant super-ESPers. The remote automated Galactic Mining Station on Delta-Vega is located near the Galactic Barrier. (TOS "Where No Man Has Gone Before")
No form of transmission can penetrate the Barrier. Deflectors register it, but sensors do not: "density negative, radiation negative, energy negative". The Enterprise's hull temperature rose to over 2,000 degrees while passing through it. (TOS "By Any Other Name")
Insane engineer Larry Marvick ranted about needing to go "beyond the boundaries of the universe/galaxy" while hijacking the Enterprise beyond the galactic rim. (TOS "Is There In Truth No Beauty?")
