Following the Shinzon Incident, the Romulan Empire remains in turmoil and although at times Federation-Romulan relations have been better, the situation still is of great concern to Starfleet. The Klingon Empire, although allied with the Federation for many years still remains quite unpredictable. StarBase 118’s long range scanners delve deep into Romulan and Klingon space, acting as an early warning system to the Federation colonies and searching for any threat no matter how small. | ||

StarBase 118 Operations was previously under the command of Captain Tyr Waltas, who left the base with his primary crew aboard the Discovery-B. The base had previously been under the command of Captain Steve McCall, Captain Nekkar, and Fleet Captain Hebron.
