The region lies between the Cardassian Union, Breen Confederacy and Tholian Assembly and is previously unexplored by Federation starships. In 2388, the USS Mercury was the first Federation ship to enter the Menthar Corridor via special arrangement with the Cardassian Detapa Council. After the Mercury was nearly destroyed in late 2390, the USS Garuda was assigned to continue her mission.

Locations within the Corridor

  • Menthar Anchorage - an independent Ferengi trading station.
  • Eta Corvi system - A planetary system and home of the Corvians
    • Deep Space 10 - a dilapidated hulk of ancient origin in orbit around Eta Corvi IV, adapted to serve the USS Mercury as a home base.
  • Beta Scuti system - The location of an ancient library approximately 60 light years from DSX.
  • JB-437 system - An uninhabited, rocky planetary system three light years from DSX.
  • Vega Sirenti system - A habitable, uncolonized planetary system approximately 50 light years from DSX.
  • 83 Leonis system - A habitable planetary system containing an endangered pre-warp civilization.
  • Nygel system - A rocky, binary star system containing traces of ancient Iconian habitation.
  • Zeta Equulei system - A binary star system home to two sentient, warp-capable species, the Community and the Myr Luuk. Significant and extensive ruins of the Ancient Alliance can also be found on at least two of the planets within the system.
