"Far Beyond the Stars" is the 137th episode of the television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, the 13th episode of season six. The teleplay was written by Ira Steven Behr and Hans Beimler, based on a story by Marc Scott Zicree. Avery Brooks directed. It is special in that almost the full cast of DS9 plays human characters, without their alien costumes, as a rare example of metafiction in the fictional Star Trek universe.

Famous quotes containing the word stars:
“Then, that no region of the universe
Should remain void of life, the floor of heaven
Was peopled with the stars and godlike forms,
The seas became the abode of glittering fish.
Earth took the beasts and mobile air the birds.
A holier animal was wanting.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
