An attempt to chart the course of the 1701 in TOS S1.
I never would've thought that it would zigzag so much. It's an interesting thought experiment: how many TOS episodes take place on planets that they find along their set course of exploration, or on Federation colonies that they happen to visit along said course, and how many episodes are we given the distinct impression that Starfleet Command diverted the 1701 from it's normal route? For example, in "The Trouble with Tribbles" the Enterprise just happened to be the closest ship during the crisis. We can therefore assume that they were on their normal patrol/exploration route. On the other hand, "The Menagerie" involves a deliberate diversion from their normal course.
