The Round Table area of the Delta Quadrant

Information from: Task Force 38 Wiki
The Round Table technically does not have boundaries: it is the entire explorable space reachable from the Solaria Gateway, an Iconian Gateway positioned in the Delta Quadrant. However, for the purposes of cartography and record-keeping, the Round Table consists of all space within ten thousand light-years (10,000 ly) of the Solaria Gateway. The Round Table is thus sufficiently large that no current Federation vessel, starting from the Gate, could reach any edge of the theatre within one year, even traveling at uninterrupted maximum warp. (The total volume of the Round Table exceeds 4.1 trillion cubic light-years, promising a vast new frontier of exploration for decades to come.)
The region of the galaxy containing the Round Table (TRT, for short) is almost completely unknown. It is fifteen thousand light-years beyond the furthest known edges of Hirogen, Vaadwaur, and, most recently, Borg expansion. Except for the limited exploration Starfleet has performed in the area, no data is available except a few long-range quasar charts and the results of major galactic stellar surveys. There has never been contact with any species from this region of the galaxy.
Task Force 38 has established a limited presence in the Round Table, with a number of small research stations and a few large exploratory missions to date.
