Going by Star Trek spacial quadrant charts and information provided in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, V'ger ended up on the far side of the Beta Quadrant, not the Delta Quadrant. Fact #3: Probably the most important information on V'ger. Knowing Borg mentality, Voyager 6 most likely would have been either destroyed or assimilated had it encountered the Borg.

The Borg would NOT waste massive amounts of resources creating a vessel so huge as the V'ger craft, just to watch it go bye bye without serving some useful purpose to the Borg. Fact #2: Voyager 6, had it ended up in Borg space, would have been seen as space junk at worst, a minor oddity at best. The whole Borg/V'ger idea/concept to try to explain the creation of the V'ger vessel, is just that - an idea, and unfortunately it's a false one that the Star Trek writers have been clinging to wrongly, to come up with some plausible explanation for the creation and early history of the Borg and of V'ger. As to the origins of the Borg, no true information has made available except that the Vardwar confirm in Star Trek Voyager that the Borg have been in existence since at least the early 15th century by human time frame and Seven of Nine confirming that much of Borg history of that time was fragmented and lost. Even if the "black hole" had time warped Voyager 6 back 500 years in the wrong direction it was originally heading, the technology differences are massive. The Borg were in existence long before NASA was created, 500 years or more. Voyager 6 (V'ger) was created and launched into space in the late 20th century. Here is why: Fact #1: The Borg have been in existence since the mid 15th century.

V'ger was NOT the creator of the Borg, nor did the Borg have anything to do with V'ger, contrary to what is believed or written in the Star Trek lexicon to try to explain how the V'ger vessel was created. Unfortunate, because that would be kind of awesome. However, with thoughts and desires of her own, she was no longer bound to serve V'ger. The Borg Queen was created out of the necessity for a single unifying voice. Drones were made from those assimilated and merged into a collective consciousness. From this, the Borg were created, as extensions of V'ger's purpose. Unable to determine who its creator could be, the probe declared all carbon-based life an infestation of the creator's universe, leading to assimilation. V'ger was found by a race of living machines which gave it a form suitable to fulfilling its simplistic programming. The extra section of the game Star Trek: Legacy contains the "Origin of the Borg", which tells the story of V'ger being sucked into a black hole. When V'ger becomes aware of this, it decides that "the resistance was futile, of course". Coincidentally, in the novelization of Star Trek: The Motion Picture (written by Gene Roddenberry), the V'ger entity notes that the Ilia probe is resisting the programming given to it because of residual memories and feelings for Decker, from its precise replication of the Deltan lieutenant.

The letter writer, Christopher Haviland, also speculated that the original Borg drones were members of a race called "The Preservers", which Spock had suggested in the original series episode The Paradise Syndrome might be responsible for why so many humanoids populate the galaxy. The connection was also suggested in a letter in Starlog #160 (November 1990). The Star Trek Encyclopedia speculates that there could be a connection between the Borg and V'ger, the vessel encountered in Star Trek: The Motion Picture this is advanced in William Shatner's novel The Return. Season 2 of Picard is slated to debut next year, but no official premiere date has been set.It looks like this explanation for the origin of the Borg is not canon. John de Lancie is set to reprise his TNG role as trickster god Q, as seen in a teaser released in June. The Borg Queen won’t be the only thorn in Jean-Luc’s side when Star Trek: Picard returns for Season 2 on Paramount+. Susanna Thompson played the role in three other Voyager episodes. Krige also reprised the role in the 2001 series finale of Star Trek: Voyager. The Borg Queen served as the de facto leader for the merciless Borg collective, one of the main adversaries for Patrick Stewart’s Jean-Luc Picard on Star Trek: The Next Generation. Wersching will recur as the infamous Trek villain, first introduced in the 1996 film Star Trek: First Contact and played by Alice Krige. Star Trek: Picard has just anointed a new queen: Annie Wersching ( 24, The Vampire Diaries) will join the Season 2 cast as the Borg Queen, TVLine has learned.
