Star Trek Map of the Galaxy( Cant be used but just wanted thoughts)

This is another thing I thought I would post since it's something I have been playing with. I understand that is is likely waaaaayyyy too copyrighted to use on the site but I still think it would be cool for a map one day if ever possible. One of the pictures has the command outlines and another has the command bonus chart of values that I came up with. I considered making a physical board game version of this but I went a little too crazy and if has long since passed the realm of feasible for a board game. it is too extensive and would take far too long but it would be prefect for a long online game, i think.
In my maps, yellow lines are the further distances and the brown the shorter ones. This was my attempt at creating a sense of the distances of space travel. when reinforcing (or attacking for that matter) your troops could either make one high warp trip (one yellow line) or two shorter warps (two brown lines). Its far from done but it is just something I was inspired to do.
Please Enjoy and share thoughts please.

Yeah, the copyright thing kinda kills it - I'm sure it's very clever and all but I can't spare the brainpower to figure it out if there can be no end product. Also the map's too big for the site: you'd need zoom-able map function - which we haven't got and I can't see coming - to keep anywhere near the level of detail. Also there's the inherit problem of all these star-map type boards in that they're 2D representations of a 3D environment... Khan's Bane...

Like Cagey said, probably a no go.

But we can all gawk in wonder at the sheer awesomeness of your post. Impressive!

Who is the Doctor. At least, that's what he goes by. When and Where is the Doctor is a reasonable question.
