A temporal shift is an event in which a person or thing is transported out of their timeline into another point within the space-time continuum.
An example of such a phenomenon occured in 2371, on stardate 48579.4, in the Delta Quadrant. The crew of the Federation starship Voyager detected a wormhole, which they used to make contact with Romulan scientist Telek R'Mor in the Alpha Quadrant. R'Mor eventually agreed to beam over to Voyager and back to his vessel, stating that he would arrange a transport vessel to take the lost crew back home. However, upon arrival, Lieutenant Tuvok realized that the wormhole was a rift in time as well as space, and that Telek R'Mor was actually from 2351, 20 years in the past. (VOY: "Eye of the Needle")
