Kathryn Janeway was a 24th and early 25th century Starfleet officer and one of the most decorated captains in Starfleet history. Born in Bloomington, Indiana, she rose through Starfleet as a science officer before taking command of the USS Voyager in 2371.
Janeway became legendary as the first Federation captain to traverse the Delta Quadrant, leading her stranded crew on an unprecedented journey home seventy thousand light years from Federation space and making first contact with more civilizations than any captain since James T. Kirk. She later served as a vice admiral at Starfleet Command.
