FEDERATION STARBASE EPSILON PI
DEEP SPACE 45

CLASSIFICATION: Federation Orbital Starbase/Advanced Technology Testing Station

SYNOPSIS:
This advanced Starbase is located on the edge of Federation space in an uninhabited expanse referred to as the Phinias Desert. While equipped as a state of the art starbase for repair, refuel and relief of Federation Starships, it is also an amazing testing facility for new technologies.

The upper habitat disk contains offices, quarters, recreational facilities and holodecks, restaurants and educational training facilities, and standard Medical Facilities. It is connected to the larger testing facility via a thick column that contains defensive and weapons systems, and runabout bays.

The larger test center is a more spherical structure ringed with sensorarrays and launch bays for specialized test vehicles. Its communications antennae array allow for high resolution data transfer between the station and larger on-planet or orbital facilities in other sections of Federation Space. This section houses the advanced scientific, astrometric, and medical observation facilities. The lower ring below it contains quarters for those scientists and officers involved in the station's research.

The central column continues down to connect to the support/ engineering sphere. This large structure contains the main engineering, sensor control, deflector control and communications systems for the Starbase, as well as the regulatory systems that manage the power generated by the massive reactor core just below. Additional communications arrays ring the bottom of the core to assist in the massive amount of information coming and going from the facility.

The station is well defended, with torpedo launchers ringing the central column and phaser burst nodes ringing the other sections. Its defensive screens are state-of-the-art with redundant generators.

Because of facilities like this, which help push the boundaries of technology, the United Federation of Planets will continue to advance
and thrive.
