Welcome to the Tzenkethi Border.
Built originally as a trade and supply outpost, Deep Space K-17 has had a long and rich history.
Following the Federation's first war with the Tzenkethi Coalition in 2280, Starfleet deemed it prudent to convert the K-Class outpost and to operate it as a listening post on the Tzenkethi Border. Gone were the days of vibrant trade and commerce, giving way to a much more solemn and serious tone about the station.
In 2361, the Tzenkethi and the Federation entered into another conflict which eventually resulted in a ceasefire in 2363. This time the Coalition went into isolation from the Federation.
Deep Space K-17 continued to function as a listening post, but quickly began to fall into disuse. With the Tzenkethi deep in isolation from the Federation, there was little need for a a full compliment to man K-17.
Over the next few decades Deep Space K-17 became a dumping ground for Starfleet's malcontents and non-starters. It became synonymous with career purgatory.
Until it happened...
