UFS Astraios colony

Deep in the Gamma Quadrant, beyond the Chamra Vortex, lies a little known sector, the Astraios Sector. The Sector contains the habitable Astraios Star System. Here three small planets orbit a relatively young star. The huge asteroid belt of the Rhakar System stretches into this region. The furthermost planet, Astraios, is an Minshara-Class planet. The humanoid population is primarily settled on the northern continent, where fresh water is easily available for crop growth and consumption. They progressed to warp capacity a century ago. Despite this the Astraionians have kept mostly to themselves, a few traders travel to Rhakar for supplies. A resolute few undertake the trip to Deep Space Nine, thousands of light years away.

A small colony was established on Astraios approximately twenty years ago. Their focus was, for the most part, scientific. Archeologists wished to study the remains of the Hur'q race, scientists wished to study the volatile toh-maire gas contained in the nebula that occur in this region of space. The colony was abruptly abandoned when hostilities broke out between Rhakar and Astraios. A fragile peace has been negotiated. Astraionians are far more aware of their vulnerabilities. They have in their possession a rare Iconian Gateway. Seldom used, highly treasured. When the Starfleet Command approached them to ask if they would be willing to have UFS reestablish a base on Astraios, they were delighted.
