Starbase 9

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

Starbase 9 was a Federation starbase constructed in the 22nd century, and was located near Sector 001. Starbase 9 was also located near the borders of the space of the Miaplacidan Alliance.

Starbase 9 was composed of an orbital space station facility and also a planetary complex.

In the late 2250s, the USS Eagle docked at the Starbase 9 space station facility before embarking on a planetary survey of Caperna IV, during Commander James T. Kirk's first month as starship first officer. (TOS - Star-Crossed comic: "Star Crossed (Part 1)")

In 2267, the USS Enterprise was enroute to Starbase 9, when they encountered a black star and were flung back in time to the 20th century. (TOS episode: "Tomorrow is Yesterday"; TOS novel: Provenance of Shadows)

Later that year, the Enterprise was headed for shore leave at the starbase when Lieutenant Commander Montgomery Scott celebrated his birthday. (TNG novelization: Relics)

In the mid-23rd century, Starbase 9 was commanded by Commodore Markessan. He resided on the starbase's planetside facility with his family. In the early 2370s, Markessan's son, Tak Markessan, was involved in a tragic ground vehicle accident which cost the life of his girlfriend, Lorina. Grief-stricken, Tak left Starbase 9 shortly thereafter in a shuttlecraft, bound for the Miaplacidan Alliance. (TOS comic: "The Quality of Mercy")
