The introduction of the Bajoran Wormhole in Deep Space Nine saw audiences transported across the galaxy to the Gamma Quadrant. While the first couple of seasons of the show saw some exploration, the rapid rise of the Dominion effectively put paid to much further discovery out there.

However, with the treaty put in place in What You Leave Behind, and the rogue Changelings being dealt with in Star Trek: Picard, there is a huge opportunity for new stories and discoveries on the far side of the Celestial Temple (more on that later).

While the Dominion arc is effectively wrapped up nicely, that leaves an entire quadrant to be explored. The developments of Star Trek: Prodigy, particularly in the field of warp drive and propulsion, also offer a means to explore the Gamma Quadrant without having to rely on the wormhole. If one wanted to give Dominion space a wide berth, one could simply start with the border between the Alpha and Gamma Quadrants, working out from there.
