A Borg vessel traveled back in time from 2373 in an unsuccessful attack on [[Earth]] in 2063. (Star Trek: First Contact) Drones which survived this defeat were discovered and reactivated by Human scientists in 2153, and transmitted a subspace message to Borg space before being destroyed by the Enterprise (NX-01). (ENT: "Regeneration") In 2293 the Federation offered aid to [[El-Aurian]] refugees fleeing the Borg. (Star Trek Generations) However, each of these incidents contributed almost nothing to the [[Alpha Quadrant]]'s awareness or understanding of the [[Borg Collective]]. | A Borg vessel traveled back in time from 2373 in an unsuccessful attack on [[Earth]] in 2063.

By the 2350s rumors of an alien race called "The Borg" had reached the [[Alpha Quadrant]], inspiring exobiologists Magnus and Erin Hansen to set out in search of them. Their research took them all the way to the [[Delta Quadrant ]]before their [[assimilation]] in 2356. (VOY: "The Gift", "The Raven", "Dark Frontier") Borg activity in the Alpha Quadrant went undetected until a series of unexplained attacks along the [[Romulan Neutral Zone]] in 2364.

In late 2366 a Borg cube invaded Federation space and assimilated Jean-Luc Picard, whose tactical information contributed, along with the Borg's own vastly superior power, to [[Starfleet]]'s disastrously one-sided battle with the cube, called the [[Battle of Wolf 359]]. A fleet of 39 [[starship]]s assembled to combat the cube was completely destroyed, with the cube emerging unscathed. The Enterprise-D recovered Picard and used his connection to the [[Hive Mind]] to disable the cube before it could attack [[Earth]].

The Borg possessed a near-reverence for [[Omega Molecule|Particle 010]], which they considered to be an expression of perfection. The Collective's fascination with assimilating this molecule has been compared to a religion.
