That's the most likely version of "being lost in space"; if you are THAT far away from known space that you are not even able to track ANY known landmark (usually quasars), than you are REALLY far from the right path ... > > Or, what you mean our pilot had a acid trip while it was doing warp > (remember Moya from Farscape) and we have no idea where we are at, let > alone when? If getting lost in TIME is also an option, even determing the WHERE gets a new difficulty. But again, not knowing how to get somewhere is already enough for "being lost", it is not really necessary to add "not knowing where" to that - although it might be a grace: I think for a ship's crew it is a very special torture to see home from the porthole and knowing that it is to far away to reach.
