Deep Space Nine
Old Cardassian mining ststion built in orbit of planet Bajor during the Cardassian occupation. Deep Space Nine was built in 2351 by the cardassians, wo called the station Terak Nor, to exploit Bajor's rich uridium deposits. In 2362, Gul Dukat was the commanding officer on Terak Nor. He retained that that position until 2369. In that year, the Cardassians relinquised their claim on Bajor and retreted from the region. Starfleet assumed control of the facility shortly thereafter, at the request of the Bajoran provisional government. Though administered by the Federation, the station fell under the jurisdiction of the Bajoran government and was a subject to its laws.
Starfleet officer Benjamin Sisko was placed in charge of the station, and his staff included Bajoran Liaison Kira Nerys, Security officer Odo, Cheif Medical Officer Julian Bashir, Science Officer Jadzia Dax and Cheif of Opertions Miles O'Brien. Major features of the station include the Opertions Center (Ops, from which all station functions are managed), the Promonade (a main thoroughfare containing numerous service facilities and stores, including Quark's Bar), three massive docking towers, and several smaller docking ports on an outer docking ring. The extent of the defensive shields around the station was alomost 300 meters. There are normally almost 300 permanent residents on the station, not counting visitors and crews of ships docked at the station. The station has the capacity to accommondate about 7000 people.
