Fictional: Star Trek:
K7 Station

Summary:This is the area around the K7 Station. It includes the K7, NCC-1701, and a Klingon D7 Battle Cruiser. Also alittle farther away is Sherman's Planet.
Description:Deep Space Station K-7 (NCC-K7) was a Starfleet built and civilian-run space station in service during the 2260s. Located within Federation space, K-7 sat near the border of the Klingon Empire, just 3.2 light years from the nearest Klingon outpost, and was at least two hundred light years from the Cardassian Union. The station was under the care of Mr. Lurry during the mid-2260s. (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles"; DS9: "Trials and Tribble-ations")

In the year 2268, Jones introduced a litter of tribbles to K-7, which quickly grew into an infestation. (DS9: "Trials and Tribble-ations")
The infestation coincided with the arrival of Federation undersecretary Nilz Baris, who transported several tons of the grain quadrotriticale to K-7, intended for cultivation on Sherman's Planet. Unbeknownst to Federation officials, the grain had been poisoned by Klingon spy Arne Darvin, in collusion with the visiting crew of the IKS Gr'oth. It was not until hundreds of tribbles were found dead, gorged on the poisoned grain, that the contamination was revealed. (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles"; TAS: "More Tribbles, More Troubles")
In the year 2373, an elderly Arne Darvin, traveled back to K-7 of the past, where he planted a tricobalt bomb, intended to kill Starfleet Captain James T. Kirk and prevent his own "dishonor". Darvin was ultimately caught by Captain Benjamin Sisko and the crew of the USS Defiant and returned to the 24th century. This incident caused some minor changes in the timeline to take place. In one instance, Miles O'Brien and Julian Bashir, disguised as members of Kirk's crew, became involved in a bar brawl between Klingons and Enterprise crewmembers. After the fight, Kirk lined up his officers for questioning. Prior to the temporal change, Freeman was questioned by Kirk, but the temporal incursion caused O'Brien to take his place.

K-7 mainly consisted of storage areas and industrial fabrication facilities. Among the recreational areas available on the station, however, was a bar frequented by intergalactic trader Cyrano Jones.
During the late 2260s, the Class F shuttlecraft NCC-K7 and the Spacematic, Cyrano Jones' vessel, were stationed in K-7's shuttlebay. (DS9: "Trials and Tribble-ations")

PLANET INFO-Sherman's Planet was a disputed planet located near the Federation-Klingon border, in an area first mapped by astronomer John Burke in 2067. (ENT: "In a Mirror, Darkly, Part II")

Following the Federation-Klingon War in 2267, and per terms of the Organian Peace Treaty, ownership of Sherman's Planet could be assumed by the side that could most effectively develop it. The Federation's intentions for Sherman's Planet were to use it to cultivate quadrotriticale, a grain well adapted to the planet's climate. (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles")

The Federation succeeded in best developing Sherman's Planet. However, by 2269, the planet had been struck by famine. On Stardate 5392.4, the USS Enterprise, under Captain James T. Kirk, was assigned to escort two robot ships hauling an improved grain, quintotriticale, to the planet to alleve the plight. (TAS: "More Tribbles, More Troubles")

Why is sherman's declination equal to ZERO ?
You think in 2D only ?
In fact, you put sherman at the north of aldebaran system, it's wrong, it's at South-East, look at the map.
