I wasn't sure, it could have been a different fight if Kirk was involved.
O.K. Now that we know what time zone that we are in.
I still need to know what Quadrant the worm hole might be in?
You see, if they arrive in the DS9 worm hole, the federation will be caught by suprise, and the Empire is sure to kick some ass.
If the worm hole is in the Delta Quadrant, that will give the federation some time before they get to the federation headquarters. Time is all that is needed for someone like Data to process his next move, if he can get Jordy to do something with a photon torpedo mixed in with the reactor coil, beamed through the transporter, then the Empire is...Fucked.
