Bajor sector
The Bajor sector, also known as the Bajoran sector, was a region of space in the Alpha Quadrant. The sector contained the Bajoran system, the Federation space station Deep Space 9, and Starfleet's Antares Ship Yards.
History[]
In 2369, the Cardassians withdrew from this sector. (TNG: "Chain Of Command, Part I")
In 2372, a tactical cartography chart of this sector was displayed in the wardroom of Deep Space 9. The parameters of this chart were Klingon fleet movements in the sector. (DS9: "Hippocratic Oath")
In 2375, while posing as "Wendell Greer", Luther Sloan told Julian Bashir he had many questions about the sector, such as its navigational anomalies and transport patterns. (DS9: "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges")
In the mirror universe, Terok Nor was the center of authority for the sector. (DS9: "Crossover")
In an alternate timeline, Starfleet had to leave Deep Space 9 and the Bajoran sector. The Klingon Empire then took over the control of the sector. (DS9: "The Visitor")
