Deep Space Nine
Deep Space Nine (DS9-401-402)
Formerly a Cardassian mining facility orbiting Bajor called Terok Nor, the station was redesignated Deep Space Nine when it came under Federation control following the end of the Cardassian Occupation of Bajor in 2369. At the behest of the Bajoran Provisional Government, Starfleet administered the facility. Shortly after the arrival of the station’s new Starfleet crew, however, a stable, artificial wormhole was discovered in the Bajor System‘s Denorios Belt. The station was moved to a new position near the terminus of the wormhole, and it quickly became a focal point for political and military intrigue, as well as one of the most strategic locations in the quadrant.[1]

Deep Space 4
A self-sustaining station in the confused frontier area between Romulus and Vulcan, Deep Space 4 saw all kinds pass through it, from mad archaeologists to pirates to naiive astrophysicists. Technically a Starfleet command post, its security force despaired of ever getting rid of all the Tal Shiar agents on board. Hence, it served as an informal diplomatic point, intelligence-gathering hub, and underground marketplace.[2]
In 2369, Captain Picard‘s old archaeology professor, Richard Galen, hoped to board an Al-Leyan transport ship to Caere at Deep Space 4 in order to continue his pursuit of knowledge about the first humanoids to live in the Milky Way Galaxy.[1]

Deep Space Three
Federation space station, commanded by Admiral Marcus Holt in the late 24th century. The U.S.S. Hera NCC-62006 disappeared in 2370, shortly after leaving Deep Space Three on a routine courier mission.[1]

Dreon VII
Class-M Alpha Quadrant world supporting a Bajoran colony, no more than six hours’ travel away from Bajor. The freighter Xhosa, operated by Kasidy Yates, made cargo runs between Bajor and Dreon VII.[1]

Drema IV
Drema IV (TNG-141)
Drema IV Surface (TNG-141)
Fourth planet of the Selcundi Drema system, home of a humanoid race unaware of interstellar travel and, like the other worlds in its sector, plagued by volcanic instability. It was found to have the largest deposit of raw dilithium ever discovered, which was believed to be the cause of its instability prior to the intervention of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D, which helped relieve the tectonic pressures and, in the process, save the planet’s native people without their knowledge.[1]

Draylon II
Class-M Alpha Quadrant world, uninhabited prior to 2370. The planet featured a stable orbit, temperate climate with mild winters, very low surface radiation, good soil with plenty of suitable farmland, and a long growing season. It was the second choice of a new home for 3 million displaced Skrreeans, after they were refused the opportunity to settle on Bajor, which their leaders had originally determined to be their legendary promised land of “Kentanna.”[1]

Drayan II
Class-M Delta Quadrant world with at least three mineral-rich moons and a native race that aged in reverse relative to most humanoids. That fact was not widely known prior to the U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656‘s encounter with the planet in 2372, due to the Drayans‘ isolationist stance toward outside cultures.[1]

Dozaria
Hot, desolate planet where the Breen operated dilithium mines. Severe ionic interference in its atmosphere caused the Cardassian prison transport Ravinok to crash-land on Dozaria in 2366 after being attacked by Breen warships. The survivors—Bajorans and Cardassians—were forced into slave labor in the mines, and were rescued six years later by Kira Nerys and Gul Dukat.[1]

Dorvan V
A Federation world colonized in 2350 by Native Americans who had long been searching for just the right spiritual home after leaving Earth in the mid-22nd century. In 2370, with the redrawing of the new Federation-Cardassian border, they were told to evacuate, but in a compromise the settlers were left alone, willingly placing themselves under Cardassian rule.[1]
