Created by Rick Berman and Michael Piller, the series continues on the rich tradition of the immensely popular Star Trek of the 1960s. The space station is stretched over a kilometre in diameter, comprising of an external docking ring, an inner ring, as well as a central core that contains the promenade. The plot of Deep Space Nine is set in the fictional universe of Star Trek. After the Cardassian occupation ended in 2369, Terok nor, the mining station was left desserted. The Bajorian government invited the Starfleet crew to supervise the rebuilding of this deserted space station which was newly named as Deep Space Nine, with Starfleet being the military force of the United Federation of Planets. This re-christened space station soon became a city of business and centre for travel through an unknown wormhole - leading to the unexplored Gamma Quadrant of the Kingdom of Dominion. Soon the Dominion, suspicious of the wormhole travellers as a threat to their power, wages an attack on the Federation and it's Klingon allies. The war that follows sets the base for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. |
