Olympia Station

Spacedock I-class • DS-20 • Fourth Fleet

Olympia Station is the headquarters for Starfleet’s operations in the distant Olympia Sector, an area of space on the extreme rimward and spinward frontier of the Federation’s territory in the Alpha Quadrant. This Spacedock-class station originally served as Starbase Bravo, but it was relocated from the Mellstoxx Sector after the completion of the new Guardian-class station that now serves as Starbase Bravo. With a technological refresh and a new command crew, Olympia Station serves as the home port for Arcturus Squadron.

Arcturus Wayfinding Squadron

Arcturus Wayfinding Squadron is an elite exploratory unit that specializes in finding new ways forward for Starfleet. Distinct from navigation, which is plotting a course based on the precise knowledge of exactly where one is in the universe, wayfinding is a more general word that refers to the process of orienting oneself in regard to space, place, objects, and peoples. Wayfinding was practiced by the Polynesian and Norse voyagers of Earth in the ancient past, as they used landmarks, the stars, and their relationships with other beings to find their way across the seas. While Arcturus Squadron engages in traditional surveying and charting missions, its mandate is also to use whatever tools it can to find the way forward, whether through diplomacy, acquiring or developing new propulsion methods, or, when necessary, mitigating threats to Starfleet’s exploratory mission.

Currently, Arcturus Squadron is based out of Olympia Station at the rimward trailing edge of Federation space in the Alpha Quadrant.

It was a strange bridge, at least to someone who had been out of the game for a while. All of the stations faced the captain’s chair. The chair itself was up six whole steps from the deck, and Captain Alexandra Langley felt out of breath by the time she hauled over seventy-year-old frame up into [...]

Olympia Station: If You Give The Borg A Warp Core

It was a quiet night on the bridge of the Nellie Bly, and newly-minted junior Lieutenant Scott Bowens was out of his mind with boredom. It was week two of a three-week scouting expedition out of Olympia Station towards the edge of the sector, and the scout vessel was traveling at high warp toward [...]
