'''Star Station Esperance''' is a non-Federation civilian hub for commercial traffic located near the border of the Federation. Consisting of orbital facilities connected to the surface of the planet [[Esperance]], many connections into and out of the Federation arrive at Star Station Esperance first, which earned the star station/planet the nickname, "Gateway to the Federation." Esperance also serves as a major trading post for goods from a string of Federation colonies that skirt the border known as the [[Colonial Coalition]]. | '''Star Station Esperance''' is a non-Federation civilian hub for commercial traffic located near the border of the [[Federation]] and the [[Tholian Assembly]] in the [[Shoals]].
