Description[]
- Unlock the secrets ofTerok Nor!
- It was once a batteredCardassian ore-processing facility orbiting theplanetBajor. But Terok Nor took on new life when the Cardassians evacuated and were replaced byStarfleet personnel. With the discovery of a nearby stablewormhole connecting theAlpha Quadrant with theGamma Quadrant, the newly christenedSpace StationDeep Space 9 became one of the most important installations in known space.
- Filled with hundreds of schematic diagrams and illustrations, theStar Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual is essential for anyone interested in the ships, technology and weapons of Starfleet and the many different species, who frequent the station, including theKlingons, theBajorans, theRomulans, the Cardassians, and theJem'Hadar.
- As an added bonus, four full-color gatefolds have been specially created for this book. In addition to providing an in-depth look at the exteriors of the station, these illustrations also show thePromenade, and highlight theUSSDefiant.
- Turning the ravaged outpost into a fully operational station involved much more than a simple name change. The transformation represented an arduous challenge to the Starfleet engineers who were required to merge two divergent technologies. How they achieved that feat, and how theFederation helps theBajoran government keep the station running smoothly, is revealed in theStar Trek: Deep Space Nine Technical Manual.
