===Gibraltar II Wormhole=== | |||
In 2410 a merchant freighter suffered a navigational error and strayed off the normal space lanes into the remote Gibraltar sector of GREEN Fleet. This chance mistake led to the discovery of the newly formed Gibraltar Wormhole. It was quickly determined that the wormhole was a stable portal deep into the BETA Quadrant and, ominously, had been | |||

===New Genesis Colony=== | |||
New Genesis was recently settled by a group of refugees from the Terran Eugenics Wars. Their cryogenics controls malfunctioned, and the colonists were not revived until found by Von Gruber, a disgraced Federation scientist. He used them for his experiments only thawing out a few at a time. They were then rescued by the USS Yorktown, and were helped to settle the new world by the USS Hunter Adams. | |||

===Outpost ZINDERNEUF=== | |||
Outpost Zinderneuf is the administrative home of Task Force Zinderneuf (TFZ), a part of SILVER Fleet. Located on the Core-ward edge of the Lion's Mane Nebula, it serves as a docking port for the ships of the task force, as well as a gateway to exploration of the 'Sack. Additionally, Zinderneuf is charged with a threefold mission to provide a Starfleet/Federation presence in the 'Sack region, stimulate growth and become the political, economic and cultural hub of the region, and promote and maintain the peace. | |||
Zinderneuf was constructed by the Hamalki (Federation member - crystalline spider race). Construction was completed in 2408 (SD 80623). The base was towed to its present location by the USS ANDROMEDA and commissioned in 2409 on SD 90801. | Zinderneuf was constructed by the Hamalki (Federation member - crystalline spider race).

===Starbase EPSILON=== | |||
Starbase EPSILON is the administrative home of SILVER Fleet and Taskforce Epsilon (TFE) and is located at the mouth of the Gibraltar II Wormhole and 5000km from the Cardassian border. While its initial mission was, and continues to be, to serve as a hub for economic and cultural development for the frontier regions as well as a standard Fleet base for SILVER Fleet the discovery of the Gibraltar II wormhole has led to an expanded role. With the unknown threat that the wormhole brings, the defence of SILVER Fleet Space and the nearby Cardassian systems. EPSILON has become the command centre of an integrated defence force of Starfleet and Cardassian Naval groups to defend this side of the wormhole from any aggression that may be launched from the other side. | |||
SB EPSILON was originally a Husnock science base that was found abandoned in the Uriah system by USS FEYNMAN (Captain Zane, commanding). At the time (2409) SILVER Fleet was in the process of being evicted from its base which was in orbit of the planet Cait. Needing a new home, FEYNMAN was able to have the derelict base transported to a new location and SILVER HQ was quickly established. | SB EPSILON was originally a Husnock science base that was found abandoned in the Uriah system by USS FEYNMAN (Captain Zane, commanding).
