Spacedock-class • SB-23 • Fourth Fleet

Starbase 23, code-named Gateway Station, is a Spacedock-class space station located on the Federation border to the Romulan Republic and the Independent Romulan Factions. Positioned on the border in the late-2390s, it was designed to replace border infrastructure that dated back to before the Romulan supernova and the collapse of the Romulan Neutral Zone. Gateway Station is now the hub of Starfleet operations in the Midgard Sector, a region that stretches across the territory of the Federation and Republic, as well as the collapsed Neutral Zone and the former territories of the Star Empire of Rator. Its mission is to maintain stability in the area through humanitarian operations and diplomacy with local Romulan factions. It is also the base for scientific operations to explore territories once inaccessible to Starfleet due to treaties with the Romulan Star Empire through survey missions, negotiating access with local powers, and the sharing of scientific knowledge with regional stakeholders.

Gateway Station is the headquarters of Endeavour Squadron, whose primary mission is to further Starfleet’s ambitions in the Midgard Sector. The Rhode Island-class USS Tempest is permanently attached to Gateway, and used by her senior staff for missions off-station.

The transporter set him down a short walk from his destination, privacy regulations stopping him from materialising on the front porch unannounced. Along a winding path through thick woods of tall firs and spruces he stepped, the early evening buzz of birds and insects in the undergrowth washing [...]

The rumour mill on Gateway was working overtime; Rhade barely beat the crowd to the main security office. Even there, he had to navigate the crush of bodies of gold-shirted officers, all gathered together to see the culprit of the brutal and incendiary murder that had stirred so much feeling across [...]

‘I told you, we didn’t follow Voler’s every move.’ The elder Romulan woman who’d answered most of the questions when Rhade originally came down to the refugee section with Kowalski didn’t look best pleased at being asked again. ‘If he had friends, contacts, people he might have gone [...]
