ussacclaim 0 Posted April 19, 2005 I'm trying to figure out what Earth day corresponds to the battle of Wolf 359. I got a Stardate of 44002.3 for the battle. Then tried some of the stardate calculators on the internet, but I get January on one and June on another. So, I thought I'd open it up to you guys. Is that the correct stardate, and do you have any reputable stardate calculators? I look forward to seeing if there is a date that can be agreed upon.

I found one at TrekGuide.com that gave all of their reasoning for their calculations and when I inputted that stardate it gave me a date of May 25, 2366. Maybe if they all agree on a year, we can just go for an extended vacation on Risa with friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack_Bauer 1 Posted April 20, 2005 I used a converter and got a date of January 1st, 2367 at 9:16 PM, GMT (I assume). Took a little trial and error. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Phaserman 0 Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) 2367 seams about accurate...three years before the show went off-line, which was 2370. By the way, we would need a REALLY fast warp drive to get to Wolf 359 relatively quickly. it's just over 2 Parsecs away (7.8 LY distant) and it's nothing really spectacular, a Flare Red Dwarf. for more info abour Wolf 359, click HERE Edited April 20, 2005 by Jim Phaserman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We already have a Federation Day that gets announced so I thought it would be nice to just have an announcement of the date and something on the portal on the annual occassion, since I think I read somewhere in Trek lore that there is a memorial there. Sound like a good idea, mods? Just a random thought I had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takara_Soong 4 Posted April 23, 2005 (edited) As a mod, I think it would be a good idea but I'm not sure we'll be able to find a date everyone can agree on. I was just looking at the profile for Benjamin Sisko and st.com has this: 2367 ? As lieutenant commander and first officer of U.S.S. Saratoga, survived ship's loss against Borg at Battle of Wolf 359 It looks like this is the most specific they have gotten with a date - a possible year.
