Starbase Everest orbits the planet Tecra IV, or "New Lugh", located in the Tecra System, Alpha Quadrant, bordering the Beta Quadrant.


Mission Profile/History[]

While Starbase Everest does act in the typical function to the Federation fleet, as well as being a traveling and commerce point to anyone en route to the Beta Quadrant, much of its outward functions are a cover for the intelligence work being done from its location, which include Research & Development and covert operations. Very few officers on the Starbase are actually aware of the existence and operation of the various groups on Pyra G, including the fact that the Chief of Starfleet Intelligence once occupied an office there.

In addition to Starfleet personnel and civilian occupants, an Ambassadorial staff is housed at the Starbase, including a Vulcan and Lughian Ambassador. However, until formal relations are re-established with the Romulan Empire, the Romulan Ambassador has been expelled.

There are two starships permanently assigned to the Starbase, the USS Infinity and the USS Mystique. Both ships have been deployed in many missions into the surrounding systems.

Internal Arrangement[]

The Main Control Center (Center Column of Everest) consists of 185 decks and is where Starbase Everest is commanded from, where all personnel live, and most work from.

  • Notes : Emergency escape pods are located on all odd-numbered decks.

Command[]

Main Ops (Deck 1)

Engineering[]

Main Engineering (Deck 171-185)

Medical[]

Main Sickbay (Deck 45)

Science[]

Science labs and offices (Deck 46-50)

Recreation[]

The Commons (Deck 91-155) are a series of restaurants, social gatherings, and stores. The center atrium of the Commons soars up 65 decks, right up the middle of the heart of Everest, lit by discreet white lighting. A few walkways crisscross high above, connecting some of the higher decks to one another. Two glassed-in turbolifts service only the Commons, separated only by a cascading waterfall (which is holographic). Vine-like plants hang from many of the balconies, and here and there mobiles/artwork are hung at various levels in the atrium.

Shuttle Bays[]

(Pyras A-F, Deck 15-16, Deck 43-44, Deck 160)

  • 20 Yellowstone class runabouts
  • 50 shuttlecraft, various types


Cargo Bays[]

(Deck 63-65, Deck 159)

Transporters[]

  • 50 personnel, 120 cargo, 200 emergency
  • Iconian Transporter (located in Pyra G; Top Secret)

Pyras (Outer Ring)[]

Starbase Everest is composed of a main control center surrounded by 7 main docking stations called Pyras. Each Pyra is designated with a letter, A through G. Pyra A through F each have three docking spaces and are used for casual intergalactic commerce. They also each have two smaller shuttlebays where the bulk of Everest's shuttle compliment is docked.

The bulk of Pyra G is classified and requires the highest security clearance for authorized use. The two starships assigned to the Everest are docked at Pyra G. Access to those docking bays is available to all Starbase Everest Starfleet personnel.

Under certain circumstances, the Iconian Transporter located on Pyra G, can be used for covert intelligence operations. These situations are handled by the Chief Intelligence officer.
