- Delta Outpost (1-9-xx): a series of Federation communications arrays and subspace transceivers located on the border of the Klingon Empire; maybe built to communicate with 'concerns' within Klingon space (before alliance) and to spy on other activities.
- Earth Outpost (1-32-xx): stationed along the Romulan Neutral Zone to monitor traffic within and beyond the zone
- Epsilon Outpost (1-11-xx): a series of Federation communications arrays and subspace transceivers located on the border of the Klingon Empire; maybe built to communicate with 'concerns' within Klingon space (before alliance) and to spy on other activities.
- Foxtrot Outposts (1-13): stationed further away from the Romulan Neutral Zone in Sector Foxtrot, in direct support of the Earth Outposts in that sector.
- Jupiter Station: established well-prior to 2153; defended from some threat (domestic?) prior to 2153.
- Memory series
- Memory Prime: construction started by Vulcans prior to 2151; mission is to provide an off-world location for all accumulated knowledge
- Memory Alpha: construction started prior to 2261, with intent to open that year; first in a series of dedicated stations to record specific categories of academic knowledge, with this being collected histories; Memory Prime re-focused on collecting and disseminating all new knowledge to appropriate Memory stations.
- Memory Beta: focus on biology
- Memory Gamma: focus on economies and agriculture
- Memory Delta: focus on astronomy (charting, formations and evolution of interstellar bodies)
- Memory Epsilon: focus on physics
- Memory Zeta: focus on culture
- Quebec Outposts (1-6): stationed further away from the Romulan Neutral Zone in Sector Quebec, in direct support of the Earth Outposts in that sector.
- Relay Station (#): small, manned outposts used to receive communications signals and re-transmit them to other stations in a larger communications network; differing from subspace relays, which are automated and indiscriminately transmit received signals in all directions.
- Romeo Outposts (1-3): stationed further away from the Romulan Neutral Zone in Sector Romeo, in direct support of the Earth Outposts in that sector.
- Sierra Outposts (1-7): stationed further away from the Romulan Neutral Zone in Sector Sierra, in direct support of the Earth Outposts in that sector.
- Tango Outposts (1-4): stationed further away from the Romulan Neutral Zone in Sector Tango, in direct support of the Earth Outposts in that sector.
Earth Space Stations
1) 1973: NASA sends up the Skylab space station to test the realities of long-term life in space (77 mt).
2) 1982: The United States and Russia fuse their competing space station programs to begin construction on StarLab One (179 mt).
3) 1984: Deep Space Gateway, the lunar orbital support station, opens.
3) 1986: Construction begins on a second and more sophisticated international space station, Space Station Freedom, in Terran orbit.
4) 2001: The ESA launches its own space station, in order to better service the unique needs of the Common Market.
- 2003: The first two Earth L-5 space colonies begin construction.
5) 2007: Tsiolkovskygrad, the first L-5 “space city,” is completed and the first 250 residents move in.
