Station 24

A civilian space station in the Delta Quadrant; waystation and refueling depot on the way to the Alpha Quadrant border. Initially meant to act as a diplomatic station, the project never received funding from the UO/IH governments and fell into disrepair, allowing other "entrepreneurs" to move in. Thus the station later became known for its recreational facilities, "intergalactic beer festivals", lack of regulations and a complete failure at observing basic hygiene recommendations. It was often advertised on local subspace networks with the following slogan:

"Space Station 24 was the Hemmoian Federation's best, but apparently not last hope for peace. It failed. But in the year of the Karaoke Wars it became something greater: Our last, best hope for PARTYING THE FUCK OUT DUDE!"

The commander of the station, a disillusioned Hemmoian, maintained a bitter hatred for the Peace Station Project and was often seen soaking his nutro-filaments in cheap gin at one of the station's numerous bars. "Should've been me on that station", he would often tell himself, pouring another drink into his fermentation canal.

The station was eventually shut down for good some time after the Peace Station Era as the number of complaints from neighboring star systems kept climbing. "They play their music too damn loud!" the elderly citizens of a nearby Old-Age Colony explained.
