History
Construction and Relocation
Iota Station was designed to be positioned between the border of the Federation and the Delta Quadrant to protect the Graviton Catapult. The United Federation of Planets Diplomatic Corps and Starfleets ultimate goal is to allow it to act as a protectorate station and trading outpost for the region.
In Service
The stardock was finally commissioned in 2388 to be the frontline station in the Delta Quadrant and all vessels operating in use Iota s their forward base of operations. She is currently at half-complement until Starfleet decides to fully man the station.
