Olympia Station(DS-20)
Olympia Station is the headquarters for Starfleet’s operations in the distant Olympia Sector, an area of space on the extreme rimward and spinward frontier of the Federation’s territory in the Alpha Quadrant. This Spacedock-class station originally served as Starbase Bravo, but it was relocated from the Mellstoxx Sector after the completion of the new Guardian-class station that now serves as Starbase Bravo. With a technological refresh and a new command crew, Olympia Station serves as the home port for Arcturus Squadron.
Arcturus Wayfinding Squadron is an elite exploratory unit that specializes in finding new ways forward for Starfleet. Distinct from navigation, which is plotting a course based on the precise knowledge of exactly where one is in the universe, wayfinding is a more general word that refers to the process of orienting oneself in regard to space, place, objects, and peoples. Wayfinding was practiced by the Polynesian and Norse voyagers of Earth in the ancient past, as they used landmarks, the stars, and their relationships with other beings to find their way across the seas. While Arcturus Squadron engages in traditional surveying and charting missions, its mandate is also to use whatever tools it can to find the way forward, whether through diplomacy, acquiring or developing new propulsion methods, or, when necessary, mitigating threats to Starfleet’s exploratory mission.
Currently, Arcturus Squadron is based out of Olympia Station at the rimward trailing edge of Federation space in the Alpha Quadrant.

Olympia Station, USS Arcturus and USS Arondight
As Nathan Blake was taken through the corridors of Arcturus, it was clear to him from the gold detailing and Federation blue accents that he was in trouble. He hadn’t been on a lot of Starfleet vessels in his day, but he was sure he’d been taken in by a flagship. From the outside, he could tell [...]

Meanwhile, the starship Arondight was about halfway through its four-day ferry mission from Starbase 339 to Deep Space 20. In addition to returning Vice Admiral Hayden from a conference, they’d picked up four new ensigns, a fresh batch of lower deckers who had been midshipmen mere weeks before. [...]

Olympia Station, USS Arcturus and USS Arondight
Ferellan Tornellis waited with well-veiled nerves for the fleet captain to consider the proposal he’d just made. It was admittedly a gamble: if they concentrated their forces on one known smuggler, they stood the chance of gaining an important asset in their crusade against the Orion Syndicate, [...]

Olympia Station, USS Arcturus and USS Arondight
The minute he picked up a Starfleet warp signature on long-range sensors, Nathan Blake turned the bow of the Oscar Wilde towards the system’s asteroid belt. They were on him much faster than he was expecting, especially since he’d searched his cargo thoroughly for any bugs or trackers. An [...]
