Battle of Wolf 359
- Starfleet Armada
- Borg Cube
- A Borg Cube entered the Alpha Quadrant and assimilated Captain Jean-Luc Picard
- Renamed Locutus of Borg, Picard led the Borg towards Sector 001
- A Starfleet armada attempted to stop the Borg near Wolf 359
- Ultimately, 39 starships were lost, with a total loss of nearly 11,000 lives
- Following the battle, the Borg Cube resumed its course toward Earth, virtually undamaged
- Locutus was rescued by the Enterprise, who used his connection to the Collective to cause the Cube to self-destruct
- The devastating losses at Wolf 359 directly led to the development of the heavily armed Defiant-class starship
