Talvath Cluster

The Talvath Cluster is a region of space in the Beta Quadrent, located at the spinward edge Federation space and the area of space dominated by the

remnants of the Romulan Star Empire. As of 2401 it remains largely unexplored by both polities as neither have a suitable base from which to deploy exploratory missions. Given its proximity to the unexplored frontiers of the Beta and Delta Quadrants and recent renewed activity from The Artifact and Soong Type droids at Coppelius, Starfleet has begun deploying more assets into the region.

in 2401 Starfleet's nearest dry-dock capable base is located at Deep Space 17. Overwatch Station acts the final frontier outpost prior to exiting Federation space into the terra nullius of the Talvath Cluster.
