Cardassian sector

The Cardassian sector was a region of space in the Alpha Quadrant. This sector was located adjacent to Sector 21503. The sector was named after the Cardassian planetary system.

In 2367 the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) was conducting a mapping survey of the sector. This sector was previously visited by Captain Jean-Luc Picard while he was in command of the USS Stargazer. While there on the Stargazer he encountered some Cardassians and lowered his shields as a sign of good will, but the Cardassians took offense and attacked, taking out his weapons and damaging the impulse engines before he could retreat.
