» Federation Announces Joint Venture With Bajor

Posted on Wed Mar 8th, 2023 @ 9:42pm by Captain Malcom Llwyedd in General News

After many years of planning, Starfleet Command has announced the pre-construction phase for a new space station, to be located on the Gamma Quadrant side of the Bajoran wormhole. This new space station, designated Deep Space Eighteen, will increase security in the Alpha Quadrant, help protect New Bajor and serve as a hub for further exploration in the Gamma Quadrant.

"This new station represents a continuation of the core tenets that guide the United Federation of Planets. We are excited about the opportunities its construction will open up. We are especially thankful for the pledged contributions from the Bajoran people that will make this endeavor possible. We estimate the station will become operational in several phases, with the first phase scheduled for completion seven months from the beginning of construction. The USS Constitution has been placed on orders to act as the flagship of the new Gamma Quadrant First Fleet."

Reactions from across the Federation were uniformly positive at the news of the Federation's expansion into the Gamma Quadrant.

The cafeteria hummed with the low hum of idle replicators and the soft clinking of the few remaining dishes being cleared away. The air hung heavy with the lingering scent of food, a mixture of comforting aromas, and the metallic tang of the ship itself. Jackson sat alone at…
