Starbase 173
Starbase 173 (TNG-135)
A major command and administrative post for the Romulan Neutral Zone,[3] located in Sector 23,[1] quite near Starbase 23, its associated strategic station.[3] Built in the 2280s, both bases were on a heightened alert status, even in peacetime. Starbase 173 hosted a key field office of Starfleet Intelligence.[3] In 2364, Starbase 173 was the site of legal proceedings, presided over by Captain Phillipa Louvois, establishing the sentience of the Android Data.[1] Engineering officer Ensign Sonya Gomez was among several new crewmembers who transferred to the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D at the starbase at that time.[2]
