Talk:Stellar cartography department

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

[edit] Department of Stellar Cartography

I seem to remember Luther Sloan calling it the Department of Stellar Cartography in "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges". Am I mistaken? I haven't seen the episode in a while. --Vedek Dukat Talk | Duty Roster 01:46, 1 Dec 2005 (UTC)

It seems to me that Sloan was probably referring to a department of Starfleet Operations or Starfleet Sciences - that is, a branch of Starfleet's administrative division. What this article is covering is the shipboard Stellar Cartography equipment and personnel, for which a more appropriate term might be "Stellar Cartography division.

[edit] What's the difference...

between the stellar cartography lab and the astrometrics lab on Voyager? My guess is that Voyager, being a smaller ship, didn't have an SC lab at the beginning and had to build one and called it astrometrics. From what I've seen in ST:Generations movie, the two labs are used for the same thing. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.163.48.66 (talk).
