Correction: The pink boundary at the edge of the galaxy is only shown from the same plane of space the Enterprise is at. If the Enterprise tried to go up or down the pink boundary would still be there.

Correction: http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Delta_Vega. There is no listing for when the site was built. At the time it was built, it could have been manned and then left to automatic control.

Where No Man Has Gone Before - S1-E4

Corrected entry: At the beginning, Kirk is talking about the Valiant having only impulse power so it didn't have enough power to leave the galaxy. Given the size of the galaxy and Kirk later saying that since the Enterprise was now on impulse power "that planets that were only hours away are now months away", it would take the Valiant about 200 years to get to the edge of the galaxy, thus arriving about the same time as the Enterprise. Also, the Valiant would have had to be launched around 1966.

Correction: At some point the Valiant encountered a magnetic storm and was swept towards the edge of Galactic barrier because its impulse engines were not strong enough. It was swept ½ lightyear out of the galaxy, thrown clear, and then turned and headed back into the galaxy. http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/SS_Valiant.
