Events

• William T. Riker is offered command of the ill-fated USS Drake, but instead accepts posting to the new USS Enterprise-D as first officer. (TNG: "The Arsenal of Freedom")
• Captain Jean-Luc Picard takes command of the USS Enterprise-D and the ship departs Earth on its first mission, to Farpoint Station. The official order to take command is signed by Rear Admiral Norah Satie on stardate 41148. The Enterprise subsequently makes first official contact with the Q entity and the lifeform which formed Farpoint. (TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint", "All Good Things...")
• The Enterprise makes first official contact with the Ferengi. (TNG: "The Last Outpost")
• The Enterprise is hurled to the M-33 Galaxy by the Traveler. (TNG: "Where No One Has Gone Before")
• The USS Stargazer, Picard's first command, is returned to Starfleet custody by the Ferengi. (TNG: "The Battle")
• Lore is discovered on Omicron Theta by the Enterprise crew. He is reassembled, but later transported into space when he tries to betray the Enterprise to the Crystalline Entity. (TNG: "Datalore")
• The star Beta Magellan goes supernova. Computer systems on the planet Bynaus, which is close by, are destabilized. The Bynars temporarily hijack the Enterprise-D from Starbase 74 in order to repair their damaged computers. (TNG: "11001001")
• Starfleet Admiral Mark Jameson dies on Mordan IV. (TNG: "Too Short a Season")
• The mythical planet of Aldea is revealed to exist. (TNG: "When The Bough Breaks")
• Natasha Yar is killed on Vagra II by the entity known as Armus. (TNG: "Skin of Evil")
• Alien neural parasites infiltrate Starfleet Command. Admirals Gregory Quinn and Norah Satie are instrumental in uncovering the alien plot, Dr. Beverly Crusher discovers a means of removing the parasites from the host, and Captain Picard and Commander Riker destroy the mother creature. The parasites transmit a homing message before they are killed. (TNG: "Coming of Age", "Conspiracy", "The Drumhead")
• Several Federation and Romulan outposts close to the Neutral zone are destroyed prior to and on stardate 41903.2. Both the Federation and the Romulans suspect each other as the cause. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone") Based on similarities with other attacked stations (TNG: "Q Who", "The Best of Both Worlds"), it is probable these events marked the first appearance of the Borg in Federation space during the 24th century.
• The Romulan Star Empire returns to interstellar politics after 53 years of isolation. (TNG: "The Neutral Zone")
• Morn visits Quark's for the first time. (DS9: "Who Mourns for Morn?")
• The Bajoran Ro Laren graduates from Starfleet Academy and is assigned to the USS Wellington. (TNG: "Ensign Ro")
• Mardah leaves her foster family on Bajor to live on her own. (DS9: "The Abandoned")
• A few weeks before the USS Enterprise-D visited the Vandor system, there is an accident in one of the labs of the research outpost on the fourth planet. There are two survivors - Dr. Paul Manheim and his wife, Jenice. (TNG: "We'll Always Have Paris")
• Six months before the starship Enterprise-D visited the Omega Sagitta system, Benzan of Straleb and Yanar of Altec begin courting each other with the assistance of Captain Thadiun Okona. (TNG: "The Outrageous Okona")

Notes

• The year 2364 is given by Data on screen in "The Neutral Zone", and is the first specific on screen date given in Star Trek. This year serves as the fixed reference around which subsequent timeline data was placed. Prior to this, fandom had generally placed Star Trek: The Next Generation in the early 24th century.
