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[edit | edit source]

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 Academy planet. He was picked up at the station by the starship USS Enterprise.

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. (TOS novel: Planet of Judgment)
