The USS Horizon, is a newly commissioned [[Resolute Class|Resolute class]] heavy cruiser, built as a modern replacement for the long-serving [[Excelsior Class|Excelsior class]] cruiser. Designed with many well-tested technologies, the Horizon and all of it’s sister ships were intended to replace the Excelsior as Starfleet’s standard ship-of-the-line, handling routine duties and patrols alongside the [[Reliant Class|Reliant class]] light cruiser that it complements. Under the command of Captain Treylana Hess, she tasked with continued deep space exploration in areas such as the [[Delta Quadrant]] as a part of the Fourth Fleet’s [[Task Force 17]].

'''Starbase 415''' is a [[Narendra Class|''Narendra''-class]] starbase located on the border between the [[Federation]] and the [[Talarian Republic]]. Constructed recently, its primary mission is to serve as a diplomatic hub for managing relations with the Talarians and supporting local research, commerce, and travel. The region has historically been disruptive, with conflicts breaking out between the two powers over the past century, but has recently entered an era of reasonable stability that Starfleet is eager to continue.
  
==Operational History==
+
A more significant facility might have been constructed, but SB-415 is also one of the nearest Starfleet outposts to the border with the [[Tholian Assembly]]. With the Tholian tendency towards territorial xenophobia, Starfleet has built very few permanent facilities near their space, and SB-415 lies a significant number of light-years within Federation territory. Nevertheless, to avoid potential antagonising, a ''Narendra''-class station was chosen for its more discreet mission profile. This decision appears to have paid off for Starfleet, as the Tholians have indeed shown signs of engaging in one of their occasional bouts of diplomatic outreach. Near to their territory without being strategically threatening, SB-415 makes a suitable hub for any such interactions.
Currently stationed at Earth Spacedock, the Horizon is yet to set out on her maiden voyage while the captain and her crew take on some much needed R&R and transfer personnel after their recent mission in the Delta Quadrant forcing the USS Atlantia to return home for a much needed refit.
 
  
==Notable Crew==
+
Beyond these diplomatic affairs, the station's operations are reasonably quiet. Any significant Starfleet operations are based out of [[Avalon Fleet Yards]], deeper into Federation territory. But this is still a rugged frontier, where supporting trade, scientific research, and colonisation projects is never without its risks. SB-415 is equipped and ready to defend itself against challenges, but is strung out on a lonely border - especially if the delicate peace between regional powers wavers.

One of Starbase 415's assets is the relay network just outside the asteroid field of the Nereus system. They act as perimeter buoys that relay starship information to Starbase 415's Operations as soon as that starship enters the system. This provides as an early warning system in case a hostile vessel were to enter the system, to which provides Starbase 415 adequate time to alert all non-essential personnel to head to their designated shelter areas while the station prepares its defenses and support craft. Or in a worse case scenary, gives them time to conduct an emergency evacuation, where non-essential personnel will be transported to all support craft where they will be transported out of the system.

This relay network also assists the station's long range sensor and communication capabilities to keep track of vessels outside of star system. While in orbit of the third planet in the Nereus system, there will be on occasion where a celestial object could potentially disrupt the station's sensors and communications outside the system. That is where this network comes in. Being linked together, the station only needs to access one relay and will be linked to all six relays.

Starbase 415 is a Narendra-class starbase located on the border between the Federation and the Talarian Republic. Constructed recently, its primary mission is to serve as a diplomatic hub for managing relations with the Talarians and supporting local research, commerce, and travel. The region has historically been disruptive, with conflicts breaking out between the two powers over the past century, but has recently entered an era of reasonable stability that Starfleet is eager to continue.

Support Craft

There is a complement of two New Atlantic-class runabouts and two Arrow-class runabouts assigned to the station. All four of these crafts are named after the lakes of Titan that orbit Saturn of Sol. While the New Atlantic runabouts are configured for scientific research, they can be reconfigured to assist the Arrow runabouts in defense of the station or be reconfigured for VIP use; such as ambassadors and other dignitaries from various factions. The two Arrow Class runabouts are specifically modulated for patrol around the star system, and may on occasion be used to investigate any situation outside of the system.

New Atlantic Runabouts

  • USS Abaya Lacus — Research
  • USS Albano Lacus — Research / VIP Craft

Arrow Runabouts

  • USS Feia Lacus — Patrol
  • USS Hammar Lacus — Patrol


Aside from the runabouts, the station also contains several Type 11, and Type 14 shuttle crafts for various uses, as well as cargo management units and workbees. The more notable crafts are the Type 20 Cargo Shuttles. Starbase 415 has a complement of three of these, and are named after the seas of Titan. Their purpose is to assist the cargo management units in transporting cargo to and from various vessels when transporters are unavailable or not recommended, depending on the cargo, and as well as used for maintenance of the relay network. With the gravity plating in the cargo hold, the Type 20 is capable of carrying a workbee, if not two, in order to conduct routine maintenance on the relay network.
