Is That a Rectangular (Borg-like) Galaxy?

Is That a Rectangular (Borg-like) Galaxy? : Discovery News: "In my eternal effort to link everything in space to a "Star Trek" storyline, when Discovery News Tech Producer Tracy Staedter emailed me this little cube-shaped nugget, I could barely keep my cool. "It's the Borg home galaxy!" I replied. (I'm certain Tracy was as excited as I was.)

Sure, I may have had one too many coffees, but the discovery of a galaxy that appears to be rectangular in shape not only kick-started my sci-fi geek, it contradicts what we know about the formation of large collections of stars."
