“The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.”

Charles Du Bos


StarBase 118 is located at the crossroads of the United Federation of Planets, Romulan Star Empire, and Klingon Empire (see map).

StarBase 118

Following the destruction of Romulus by a supernova, the Romulan Empire remains in turmoil. 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. With many new threats to Federation security emerging daily, and on many fronts and in many guises, the crew of StarBase 118 Operations must remain constantly vigilant.

Yet this is but one aspect of the starbase's role, and as one of the largest installations in this and surrounding sectors, she acts as a commercial trading port, with many vendors trading their goods and wares from these three major powers for distribution to other planets and colonies far and wide. Onboard, the saga of StarBase 118 continues daily, as thousands upon thousands of people live, work and play out their lives within the massive structure.

Leadership

Since its construction, StarBase 118 has had a number of StarFleet administrators who have helped shape the scope of the base's mission. Most recently Captain Sal Taybrim assumed command of StarBase 118 in 2392 with Lt. Commander Theo Whittaker as the stations First Officer when Captain Leo Handley-Page stepped aside to take a research sabbatical. In late 2394 Commander Whittaker took the USS Columbia to the Andaris Task Force to take his own command, and Lt. Commander Taelon was promoted to station FO in 2395. Since 2397 Lt. Commander Nijil has served as station's First Officer
