Deep Space 9(II)

**Deep Space 9** was a Federation starbase. Under the advisement of Federation President and Bajoran First Minister Asarem Wadeen, it was decided that a new space station in the Bajor system would be the second station to bear the name Deep Space 9. Construction of the station began shortly after the destruction of its Cardassian-built predecessor in 2378 and finished in 2380.

## Specifications and layout

Deep Space 9 was the first of the Federation's new *Frontier*-class, and the largest deep space station in operation in 2380. At normal capacity, it supported a population of 13,000 and was capable of taking on the passengers and crew of dozens of ships that made dock.

Unlike DS9's *Nor*-class predecessor, which was designed as an Ore Refinery and converted into a starbase, the new space station was designed to be a starbase of the latest design, with full repair and construction facilities, as well as state of the art science labs. DS9 II was designed to be the premier operations hub for all deep space assignments in the Bajoran sector.

The new station was made up of three intersecting rings, perpendicular to each other, with a central spherical core. The Horizontal Ring was known as "X" ring, with the two vertical oriented rings known as "Y" and "Z". The rings housed docking facilities, repair bays and cargo bays, as well as sensor arrays, shield generators and weapons ports. The operations center, informally known as *the Hub*, was located at the upper intersection of the two vertical rings. The docking ring was connected to the sphere by six crossover bridges.

The station also served as headquarters for the Starfleet Judge Advocate General in the Bajoran system.
