Deep Space 5 was a Federation Starbase in the Typhon sector. Originally designed as a standard Deep Space Starbase, it was converted into a military base with the primary purpose of serving as a first line of defense against the Borg. Deep Space 5 is constantly upgraded with the latest in sensor technology to scan for approaching Borg ships. (DS9 roleplay module: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Core Game Book)
As of 2370, DS5 was responsible for new ship development, along with Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards, Starbase 47, and the Federation colony on Iadara. (TNG episode: "Parallels")
In 2373, DS5 became the temporary home for thousands of Thallonian refugees after the fall of the Thallonian Empire. The station was packed to capacity, with even the conference rooms serving as shelter.
The so-called Thallonian summit was held on board the USS Enterprise-E while docked at the station. (NF novel: House of Cards)
