  Star Trek at AllExperts
Star Trek is among the most popular of all science fiction works and is considered to be one of the iconic landmarks of American television.
Star Trek depicts a post World War III vision of an optimistic, utopian future in which science has united human beings with other sentient species in the galaxy, and thus helped humanity largely overcome many earth-bound frailties and vices such as racism, poverty, environmental destructiveness, intolerance, and superstition.
Star Trek II, IV, VI and Star Trek: First Contact are usually considered the fan-favorites, while Star Trek I and V are usually at the bottom (though I has since received quite a bit of positive re-evaluation in the wake of an acclaimed "Director's Edition" revision released on DVD).

2.2 The division of the Star Trek Galaxy
Finally in Star Trek VI, the current - and correct - quadrant system was introduced, according to which "the galaxy is subdivided into 4 quadrants, from which each forms a 90 degrees piece of cake, viewing the galaxy from the top or the bottom" (Star Trek Encyclopedia).
According to the pretty general definition of the Star Trek Encyclopedia, a sector is a space region with a diameter of 20 ly, although some official maps further specify a sector in the three-dimensional space as a cubic volume.

 Sector (Star Trek)
Sol is a star in the middle of the Orion Arm of the galaxy.
Sector blocks are laid out in a 9 X 10 X 10 grid, so the resulting sectors are as close to perfect 20 ly cubes as possible.
Sectors are identified by four sets of numbers that represent the grid, quad, and block the sector is located in, and finally the number of the sector itself.

 WinTrek for Windows 3.x - MobyGames
For navigating the Enterprise through the sectors and quadrants, you do not "drive" her, but instead you control the navigation station directly (setting course, whereby any of the 360 degrees can be used, and setting speed limits, both impulse and warp).
WinTrek: a quadrant consists of sectors; the quadrant grid is practically identical with the sector grid, therefore quadrants are part of a bigger system; you drive with warp from one quadrant to another.
Star Trek: a quadrant consists of sectors too, but there are only four quadrants in the galaxy (Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta - all four containing one fourth of the galaxy; for example, we are on the border of the Alpha and Beta quadrants).

 Typhon sector - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
In 2373, the sector was the rendezvous point for a Starfleet task force led by Vice Admiral Hayes, and the location of the initial engagement with a Borg cube enroute to Earth.

The Typhon sector may be somehow related to the Typhon Expanse of TNG: "Cause and Effect".

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier proved to be a disaster, garnering the worst reviews of the series and one of the lowest box office takes as well.
And, in typical Star Trek fashion, the regular characters who undergo this supposed "life-altering" emotional exposure will talk about how their entire existence has been changed, but show no signs of being any different than before.
Now, I’m not enough of a Star Trek geek so as to know how the Federation Galaxy is laid out, but certainly it seems like a trip to the Center of the Milky Way Galaxy would take years, perhaps decades, not hours.

Every nine sectors you're warped to the Klingon Mother Ship for battle (which, for some strange reason, appears to fire Klingon and Romulan weapons at you) and it's usually a good idea to dock with the starbase once per sector when it appears in order to replenish your weapons.
After you destroy a couple dozen enemies, and you THINK there's only one ship left, you dock with the starbase to replenish everything...when another two enemy ships suddenly appear on the screen at the same time (which, for a while there, it was only THE one ship on the screen that you thought was left).
