The history of the Regula One

The Regula series of stations were designed as small, flexible platforms for long-duration scientific missions in isolated locations. These kinds of missions could last for years; keeping a science team on station for that length of time would require the commitment of either a major starship asset or a fleet of small science vessels relieving one another every few months. Either of these was a significant draw on resources, while a small fixed station would offer the same capability at a fraction of the resources. She’s a bit of a classic. Been in service longer than most Starfleet installations. But she’s solid, and hopefully due for a retrofit soon.
