Deep Space 5

Deep Space 5 was a Federation space station that was in service with Starfleet in the late 24th century. This station was located near the planet Ivor Prime, and was responsible for new starship developments.

In an alternate quantum reality visited by Worf in 2370, Deep Space 5 was the object of covert surveillance by the Cardassians, along with Starbase 47, the Iadara colony, and the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards.

In 2373, Deep Space 5 reported the complete destruction of the colony on Ivor Prime. It was subsequently determined that the Borg were responsible, and were mounting a new attempt at an invasion of the Federation.
