Narendra Station

Starbase 364, known colloquially as Narendra Station, is the joint Federation/Klingon outpost used as a way point into the Shackleton Expanse.

History

Construction of the deep-space station formally designated as Starbase 364, informally known as Narendra Station, began in the early 2350s; the station was deemed fully operational in 2369. Built in tribute to the Klingon colonists who were massacred during a Romulan sneak attack against the Narendra III outpost in 2344, the starbase also serves as a reminder of the pivotal shift in Klingon- Federation relations that assault caused. Starbase 364’s dedication ceremony was conducted on the 25th anniversary of the massacre and included the unveiling of a memorial for the fallen of both Federation and Empire.

Narendra Station was built to enhance the existing Federation-Empire partnership. Both Starfleet and Klingon personnel and their families live and work here, pursuing missions and goals relevant to their individual governments as well as joint tasks that serve to further support continuing collaborative efforts. Given the station’s location and relative isolation from more populated areas of Federation space, the station’s command staff has been granted broad authority to dispatch the vessels in its charge on missions of exploration as well as diplomacy.

To further illustrate the importance of the station and its location, Starfleet recently placed the 20th Fleet under the command of Admiral April Hebert and made the station her headquarters. The starbase stands ready to defend against threats to Federation and Klingon security, whether introduced by a known adversary such as the Romulans, or anyone or anything previously unidentified that might emerge from the unexplored depths of the Shackleton Expanse. Federation analysts believe that the deeper recesses of the Beta Quadrant may be one possible breeding ground for the Borg Collective, and should that adversary choose to pass through the Expanse to again attack the Federation and her allies, Starbase 364 may prove to be our first line of defense.
