Bajoran Wormhole
The stable wormhole to the Gamma Quadrant, home of the Prophets.
The Bajoran wormhole is the only stable wormhole known to exist in the Milky Way Galaxy in Star Trek, and the home of extra-dimensional beings worshipped by the Bajorans as gods, the Prophets; in Bajoran religion it is called the Celestial Temple. Considered a myth until Commander Benjamin Sisko and Lieutenant Jadzia Dax discovered it in 2369, it links the Denorios belt of the Bajoran system in the Alpha Quadrant with a point in the Gamma Quadrant 4.7234 light years from the Idran system, two points normally almost 90,000 light years apart, and makes the passage between them nearly instantaneous.
