Deep Space Nine (DS9) is a fictional space station in the American science fiction television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. It was previously known as Terok Nor and was built by the Cardassians during their occupation of Bajor. The station is located near the planet Bajor and serves as a base for the exploration of the Gamma Quadrant via the Bajoran wormhole. It is run by a joint crew of Starfleet and Bajoran officers and is the home port of a number of Starfleet runabouts, as well as the starship USS Defiant. The station is over a kilometer in diameter and is composed of a broad outer docking ring; an inner habitat ring containing residential apartments; and a central core containing the promenade, the fusion reactors, and the operations center, known as "Ops". It has three sets of docking pylons that sweep up and down equidistantly around the docking ring, defining an almost spherical shape. The station is of identical design to another Cardassian station, Empok Nor. The station is featured in the opening for all 176 episodes of Deep Space Nine, as well as part one of the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode “Birthright”, the first Star Trek: Voyager episode “Caretaker”, and the Star Trek: Lower Decks episode "Hear All, Trust Nothing". Many story arcs introduced on Next Generation are extended by events that occur on the station. The station builds on the legacy of the Cardassian-Federation interactions introduced by that show and the first episode, “Emissary”, includes a visit from the Enterprise-D1.
The AMT ERTL 8778 is a 1/2500 scale model kit of the Deep Space Nine Space Station from the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine series. The kit was released in 1994.
