Nesta research station

The Nesta research station was a Federation outpost, a research facility on the surface of the planet Nesta in the 23rd century.

History
In the mid-23rd century, Professor James Atheling oversaw the establishment of the outpost station.


 * As Atheling was an astrophysicist with expertise on thermal sources of bosons and tachyons, the facility most likely focused on research in those areas.

In 2269, Atheling accepted a position as the dean of Starfleet Academy's College of Science on the planet. He was picked up at the station by the starship USS Enterprise (NCC-1701).

Later, a falsified distress signal reported that Spock, Leonard McCoy, Andre Charvat, Sharon Follett, and Rosaly Ybarra had visited the station, but while there became infected by a virulent plague.
