And yet the more I've experienced, the more I've learned that no matter how far we travel, or how fast we get there, the most profound discoveries are not necessarily beyond that next star. They're within us, woven into the threads that bind us, all of us, to each other." — Jonathan Archer Captain of the Earth Starfleet vessel Enterprise and later Federation President The United Federation of Planets is an interstellar alliance of planetary governments and colonies established in 2161.
