Yorktown (starbase)

Yorktown Station was a Federation starbase active in the alternate reality 23rd century.

Located near the edge of Federation space in 2263 the base housed millions of people from all Federation worlds. It was built with the idea of not showing favortism to any world of the Federation by being built in deep space instead of on a planet.

The base consisted of a large transparent globe with at atmosphere and a number of pylons that held buildings, parks, squares, and support facilities. The station had a large space dock capable of easily holding ships as large as Constitution class vessels.

Yorktown Station also contained a shipyard capable of building vessels, including Constitution class ships. One such vessel was the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-A), which was launched in 2263 following the destruction of the previous USS Enterprise (NCC-1701).
