Unnamed Federation space station classes

This page lists and describes unnamed Federation space station classes.

Earth Spacedock-type
This massive mushroom-shaped station was in service as early as the 2270s. Its design was suited for starbases and starship construction. The primary hull sat atop a thick, cylindrical central core and housed the main docking bay. Nearly halfway down the core was a smaller, hemispherical hull that contained another docking bay. At the base of the core was a spherical housing for matter/antimatter tanks and the impulse engines. (Ships of the Line 2010)

Modular space station
This type of station in use in the 24th century had a modular design which was suitable for various roles, such as starbases and support stations. The main hull consisted of a core of three conjoined cylinders with a large hemispherical dome on either end. The lower hemisphere had four landing pads located on its dorsal surface. Branching off the central core were smaller truncated hemispherical modules and circular habitats. The different components could be towed to a particular location and assembled within a drydock frame with tractor beams, workbees and Sphinx workpods.
